      • length

        int length
        The length of the padding used for each id in the message bundle. For example given the default padding length of 6 and a message with an id of 100 would result would be "000100".

        Valid values a range of 3 to 8. Any value less than 0 turns off padding. Any other value will result in an error being produced.

      • rootLocale

        String rootLocale
        Specifies the locale for formatting bundle messages. This is only used in the super implementation. Subclasses will define their own locale to use based on the name of the resource bundle at compile time.

        An empty string will default to Locale.ROOT.

        A non-empty string will be parsed by the Locale.forLanguageTag(String). This uses the IETF BCP 47 format.

        Returns:
        the default locale message bundles should use for formatting messages
        Default:
        ""
