Answer 1

With Eclipse and Windows:

you have to copy 2 files - xxxPROJECTxxx.properties - log4j.properties here : C:\Eclipse\CONTENER\TOMCAT\apache-tomcat-7\lib

Answer 2

ResourceBundle doesn't load files? You need to get the files into a resource first. How about just loading into a FileInputStream then a PropertyResourceBundle

   FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("skyscrapper.properties");
   resourceBundle = new PropertyResourceBundle(fis);

Or if you need the locale specific code, something like this should work

File file = new File("skyscrapper.properties");
URL[] urls = {file.toURI().toURL()};
ClassLoader loader = new URLClassLoader(urls);
ResourceBundle rb = ResourceBundle.getBundle("skyscrapper", Locale.getDefault(), loader);

Answer 3

Use the Resource like

ResourceBundle rb = ResourceBundle.getBundle("com//sudeep//internationalization//MyApp",locale);
or
ResourceBundle rb = ResourceBundle.getBundle("com.sudeep.internationalization.MyApp",locale);

Just give the qualified path .. Its working for me!!!

I have just realized that my error was caused in the naming convention of my property file. When i used xxxx.xxxx.properties i got the error:

java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name 'property_file name', locale en_US

Changing it to something like xxx-xxxx.properties works like a charm. Hope i help someone!

Answer 5

just right click on the project file in eclipse and in build path select "Use as source folder"...It worked for me

Answer 6

You should set property file name without .properties extension, it works correctly for me:)
