Modifying a Properties File
There are two ways of editing properties files in your resource bundles:
- In the Source Editor as text files. The Source Editor displays one text
file for each of the resource bundle's locales. Each locale file lists all
the key and value pairs for that locale.
- In the Properties Editor, a special editor that displays inside the Source
Editor. The Properties Editor displays a table layout of the keys and values
for all of your resource bundle's locales.
To modify a properties file in the Properties Editor:
- Double-click the properties object node (
)
in the Explorer.
The properties object opens in the Properties Editor. You can:
- Change a property's key by typing the new name in the Key column.
- Change a property's value for a locale by typing the new value in the
locale's column.
- Add and remove keys using the New Property and Remove Property keys.
To modify a property file as a text file:
- Right-click the properties object node and choose Edit to edit the default
locale.
- To edit a different locale, expand the properties object node. Then right-click
node for the locale you want to modify and choose Edit.
