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.

return bundleHierarchy;
		
		
		final String language = locale.getLanguage( );
		final int languageLength = language.length( );
		final String country = locale.getCountry( );
		final int countryLength = country.length( );
		if ( languageLength > 0 && countryLength > 0 )
		{
			
			StringBuffer temp = new StringBuffer( baseName );
			temp.append( "_" ); 
			temp.append( language );
			temp.append( "_" ); 
			temp.append( country );
			temp.append( ".properties" ); 
			PropertyResourceBundle bundle = populateBundle( new File(
					msgFolder, temp.toString( ) ) );
			if ( bundle != null )
				bundleHierarchy.add( bundle );
		}
		if ( languageLength > 0 )
		{
			
			StringBuffer temp = new StringBuffer( baseName );
			temp.append( "_" ); 
			temp.append( language );
			temp.append( ".properties" ); 
			PropertyResourceBundle bundle = populateBundle( new File(
					msgFolder, temp.toString( ) ) );
