public class PropertyResourceBundle
extends ResourceBundle

`PropertyResourceBundle` is an abstract subclass of `ResourceBundle` that manages resources for a locale using a set of static strings from a property file. See `ResourceBundle` for more information about resource bundles in general.

The property file contains the keys that you use in your source code in calls to `ResourceBundle.getString` and similar methods, and their corresponding values, etc. The name of the property file indicates the resource bundle's family and locale.

In the following example, the keys are of the form "s1"... The actual keys are entirely up to your choice, so long as they are the same as the keys you use in your program to retrieve the objects from the bundle. Keys are case-sensitive.

>      s1=3
>      s2=MeinDisk
>      s3=3 Mar 96
>      s4=Der disk '{1}' a {0} a {2}.
>      s5=0
>      s6=keine Datein
>      s7=1
>      s8=ein Datei
>      s9=2
>      s10={0}|3 Datein
>      s11=Der Format worf ein Exception: {0}
>      s12=ERROR
>      s14=Resulte
>      s13=Dialogue
>      s15=Pattern
>      s16=1,3
