Interface FileLanguageResourceSpecifier

All Superinterfaces:

Cloneable, MetaDataObject, ResourceSpecifier, Serializable, XMLizable

public interface FileLanguageResourceSpecifier
extends ResourceSpecifier

A type of ResourceSpecifier that locates a resource file using its URL, where the URL depends on an ISO language identifier. An example of this type of resource is a dictionary with a separate data file for each language.

Instead of a single URL, this specifier defines a URL prefix and a URL suffix. The ISO language identifier is then placed between the prefix and suffix to form the complete URL of the file. If that file does not exist, more general language identifiers will be tried. For example, if there is no resource for en-US, the resource for en will be used instead.
