/**
 * This class is a concrete <code>ResourceBundle</code> that gets it
 * resources from a property file. This implies that the resources are
 * strings. For more information about resource bundles see the class
 * <code>ResourceBundle</code>.
 *
 * You should not use this class directly, or subclass it, but you get
 * an object of this class automatically when you call
 * <code>ResourceBundle.getBundle()</code> and there is a properties
 * file.
 *
 * If there is also a class for this resource and the same locale, the
 * class will be chosen. The properties file should have the name of the
 * resource bundle, appended with the locale (e.g. <code>_de</code> and the
 * extension <code>.properties</code>. The file should have the same format
 * as for <code>Properties.load()</code>
 *
 * An example of a properties file for the german language is given
 * here. This extends the example given in ListResourceBundle.
 * Create a file MyResource_de.properties with the following contents
 * and put it in the CLASSPATH. (The char <code>\u00e4</code> is the
 * german umlaut)
 *
