Generated Resource Bundles

The file that defines the value for the control hints you set depends on the specific business service used for the project. In the case of beans-based business services, (including JavaBeans, Enterprise JavaBeans, and Oracle TopLink), by default JDeveloper generates a standard .properties file for the project and saves the control hint definitions as translatable strings.

Notice in the Application Navigator that the file DataControlBundle.properties has been added to the oracle package in the DataControl project:

The project-level resource bundle option JDeveloper uses to save control hints is determined by the Resource Bundle page of the Project Properties dialog. By default JDeveloper sets the Resource Bundle Type option to Properties Bundle, which produces a .properties file.

The first time you customize a control hint in the project, JDeveloper creates the DataControlBundle.properties file. The DataControlBundle.properties file contains translatable key strings for the control hint definitions you added. For example, if you open DataControlBundle.properties in the source editor, you should see the following code that identifies the translatable string:

                               
# 
FreightCost.calculateFreightCost.params.arg0.batchId_LABEL=Order Number
