Resource Bundle

By default, JDeveloper does not automatically create text resources in the page's resource bundle when you edit UI components in the visual editor. If you wish to use a resource bundle, select the Automatically Synchronize Bundle option in the Project Properties dialog, Resource Bundle page. The default bundle type is Properties Bundle, which is a PropertyResourceBundle properties file or a plain-text file containing translatable text. A properties file can contain values only for String objects. If you need to store other types of objects, use a ListResourceBundle instead.

When Automatically Synchronize Bundle is selected, after you enter text in the visual editor and press Enter, JDeveloper displays the text as an EL expression:

JDeveloper also creates the properties file. For example:

                               
#
                                


SOME_TEXT=Some Text
