Hello,

I am working on a java project, which needs to incorporate
Internationalisation and Localisation. It has been suggested that the
locale specific ".properties" (errormessages_ar.properties) that
contain UNICODE equivalent of the Arabic text in my case.

My questing is why not use the Arabic text messages rather than their
UNICODE equivalent in the "xyz_ar.properties." file? What problems will
this cause?

All suggestions will be highly appreciated.

Thank you,
Nitin

Nitin, I haven't tried this myself, but if you absolutely need to use another encoding for your properties file, you might be able to pull it off using the...
