I think that we should internationalize log and tools usages. Why not? Anyone can easily set English locale to post error messages to dev-list.
SY, Alexey 2006/9/8, Ilya Okomin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Hi all, During rmi module internationalization I've faced with loads of log messages (e.g. take a look at o.a.h.rmi.DefaultRMIClassLoaderSpi). Also some classes (e.g. o.a.h.rmi.compiler.RmicStrings) have strings that are the usage texts of any console tool. I think we shouldn't internationalize such messages, however I'm not really sure about that. If we internationalize them - we'll obtain fully internationalized module it is an advantage. From the other hand - if you have to analyse someone's log, it is useful if the common langauge was used. Moreover, messages.properties file with the list of all messages will be too huge to find appropriate messages for new classes developed later.
