Class TranslationMap

java.lang.Object
  javax.rad.util.TranslationMap

All Implemented Interfaces:

ITranslator

public class TranslationMap
extends java.lang.Object
implements ITranslator

Translation is for translating labels or label keys in any language. It supports wild card translation. This is supported in a very fast implementation. Translation examples: "Helo *, how are you?", "Hallo *, wie geht es Dir?" translates "Helo Lisa, how are you?" to "Hallo Lisa, wie geht es Dir?".
