JSTL leverages java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundle() to locate a resource bundle, which means that your localized messages may be stored in any subclass of java.util.ResourceBundle. The JDK provides these two subclasses: java.util.ListResourceBundle and java.util.PropertyResourceBundle. The latter allows you to store your key/value pairs in a properties file. If neither of these fit your needs, you may provide your own ResourceBundle subclass, which must override the handleGetObject() and getKeys() methods.
