Bug 140860 ResourceLocator does not locate externalized strings stored in .properties files
I have been investigating the support to add my custom resource locator to find my externalized properties files and I want to make sure that I will have the right support. I looked at the BIRT code and found that org.eclipse.birt.report.model.core.BundleHelper does not use the IResourceLocator to find the .properties file. Instead it has a "msgFolder" attribute that holds the directory path of the resource files. However this is not going to work for me. I would like the BundleHelper class to make a call to the IResourceLocator to find the .properties files. Could the component owner change this bug to the right component.

try
		{
			Library library = LibraryReader.getInstance( ).read( session, this,
					url.toString( ), namespace, url.openStream( ) );
			if ( StringUtil.isBlank( namespace ) )
			{
				library.setNamespace( StringUtil
						.extractFileName( libraryFileName ) );
			}
			return library;
		}
		catch ( IOException e )
		{
			DesignParserException ex = new DesignParserException(
					new String[]{libraryFileName},
					DesignParserException.DESIGN_EXCEPTION_FILE_NOT_FOUND );
			List exceptionList = new ArrayList( );
			exceptionList.add( ex );
			throw new DesignFileException( libraryFileName, exceptionList );
		}
