public class LocalizeHelper extends Object
THIS IS A UTIL CLASS TO COPY LOCALIZE-PROPERTY FILES. DO NOT USE ANY OF THESE METHODS IN PRODUCTIVE CODE Simple class to support developers in internationalisation-process. All files named "messages.properties" in the source dir (recursively scanned) are compared to all files named "message_ll_RR.properties" (ll means language, e.g. de for german; RR means region, eg. AT for austria; the String ll_RR is given as parameter). If the target file does not exist, it is created with the same content as the source file. If the target exists, the properties contained in the source, but not in the target, are copied to the target and marked with the text <TRANSLATE_ME> as value-Prefix.

Note: No translation is done by this class!
