About Java ME MIDP Localization Support

See Also

Localization is the process of designing software so that it can be adapted (localized) to various languages and regions without engineering changes to the software. When you localize an application, you provide alternate language values for each element in your application, such as screen text, menus, and icons.

In the NetBeans IDE, you can use the New Localization Support Class wizard to create the files you need to localize an application:

After you create the key/value pairs for your application, you can then use the getMessage() method within your code to prove the proper value for the called key. The initialization method is called automatically when a call to the getMessage(java.lang.String) method is attempted for the first time.

For example, LocalizationSupport.getMessage("TEXT_HELLO")
