I have been reading other questions and answers around this but I am not getting how resource boundle works for completly.
I think it is similar at Joomla way of using multilingual options.
Basically you have files for the different messages you want to read for different languages.
So I created System.properties inside my src/Lang folder
Inside I create
STARTING_MYAPP=Starting my app
I might be wrong here, but anyways I am not able to read the default file. Right now I am brain death, and I cant make sense of anything I read
this is how I am doing this
Locale locale = Locale.getDefault();
String basename ="System";
ResourceBundle resourceBundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle(basename, locale);
System.out.println(resourceBundle.getString("STARTING_MYAPP"));
//UserPreferences UserPrefs = new UserPreferences();
when I call getBundle(),it has two inputs, the basename and the locale, right. I am having trouble with the basename. If my file is inside src/lang/System.properties, how should I look for it. basename="System", basename="Lang/System", basename="System.properties", basename="myProject.label".
I tried all of this and some more combinations but non work, I always get something like
Exception in thread "main" java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name System, locale en_US
About the locale, how I leave it up to default, so I dont have to use a System_en_US.properties or something like that.

The basename is structured like a fully qualified class name (because resource bundles can be classes), so if your classpath root is src and the resource is a file src/lang/System.properties, then the basename is lang.System.
About the locale, how I leave it up to
default, so I dont have to use a
System_en_US.properties or something
like that.
Simply use the getBundle() method that takes only the basename.
