ObjectAbstractInternationalString
public abstract class AbstractInternationalString
A string that has been internationalized into several
locales. This class is used as a replacement for the
String
type whenever an attribute needs to be internationalization
capable. The default value (as returned by toString()
and other
CharSequence
methods} is the string in the current system default.
The natural ordering is defined by the string in
default locale, as returned by toString()
.
This string also defines the character sequence.
