public interface Localizable

This interface must be implemented by the classes which must provide a way to override the default locale.

Method Summary
`java.lang.String` | `formatMessage(java.lang.String key, java.lang.Object[] args)` Creates and returns a localized message, given the key of the message in the resource bundle and the message parameters.
