No feedback must mean everyone is happy ;-)

I'll take a look at this the week after next when I get back from SCUBA diving in the Red Sea :-) and my broken machine is fixed :-(

Owing to server outages, this seemed to get lost first time round.

I notice from looking at the code that although there's an approach to what log implementation to use for internationalization/localization support, there's nothing formal for creating resource bundles. Maybe I missed it though. However, under the assumption I'm correct, one thing I'd like to suggest to solve this issue would be to use the resource bundle doclet that was developed by Hewlett-Packard, and now freely available (under LGPL) from JBoss. Take a look http://docs.jboss.org/process-guide/ en/html/internationalization.html#d0e3916 and specifically at 11.2.6 (Creating Resource Bundles). You can ignore the references to the logger implementation because, as I said above, that seems to be taken care of already in CXF.

This doclet has been used successfully in many of the HP NetAction products (in 2000/2001/2002) and subsequently in the Arjuna Transaction Service/Message Service implementations. If this looks to be of interest, then I'd be happy to work with whoever to incorporate the ant task that runs the doclet into the build scripts and produce an update to the wiki page for developers to follow when writing text that goes into a resource bundle. I know it's covered by LGPL, but I assume that since this would only affect the building of CXF and not something that gets shipped with the product, it should be alright to use.

I'll take a look at the wiki page and come up to speed on that.

Your I18N reference got me thinking. Can someone point me at the I18N/ L10N approach taken for CXF? What I mean is the rules and tools for
generating resource bundles and using them within the code. If
there's no solution in place, we may have an open source tool that
the project might want to consider.

There is some "older" stuff on the old Celtix wiki related to that:
http://wiki.objectweb.org/celtix/Wiki.jsp?page=Internationalization
and:
http://wiki.objectweb.org/celtix/Wiki.jsp?page=CeltixLogging

Not a lot though and what is there needs to be copied to the CXF space.

Good question though.  :-)

If you see areas in the code that aren't doing the I18N stuff, file bugs
(or fix it).

Thanks!
