		<description><![CDATA[The other day I suggested that you use UTF-8 to encode your Java source code files. I still think that&#8217;s a best practice. If you can do that, you owe it to yourself to follow that advice. But what if you can&#8217;t store text as UTF-8? Perhaps your repository won&#8217;t allow it. Or maybe you [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s not uncommon to have programmers in multiple countries, maybe a team in Belarus and others in Japan and in the U.S. Each of these teams most likely speaks different languages, and most likely their host systems use different character encodings by default.

As I experimented with the class, I discovered a new category enumeration: Locale.Category.DISPLAY Locale.Category.FORMAT I learned some more about the Locale.setDefault methods that indicate a user error on my part. I stated that ResourceBundle is tied to the DISPLAY [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While working on a chapter in an upcoming APress book, I was experimenting with Java 7&#8242;s Locale and ResourceBundle classes. Java 7 introduces two new Locale categories: DISPLAY and FORMAT. You can set the default locale for localizable user interface resources independently from the default locale for data Format subclasses. For example, you supposedly can [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently installed Java 7 on my Mac OS X system. Although the installation went smoothly, I did run into one problem that might not be a big issue for you. I didn&#8217;t go through the hassle of compiling it for myself. Instead, I opted to grab a precompiled JDK from here: http://code.google.com/p/openjdk-osx-build/downloads/list?q=label:Featured Specifically, I chose [...]]]></description>

That&#8217;s probably the best; the article was a rehash of an older subject that I already presented long ago. I refreshed the original article and thought I could recycle it.

I answered in my typical fashon: Well, everytime you need a new bundle, just add that bundle&#8217;s jar or directory to your classpath and run the application. [...]]]></description>
