Class LocalizedString

java.lang.Object

com.inductiveautomation.ignition.common.i18n.LocalizedString

All Implemented Interfaces:

Localized, Serializable, Comparable<LocalizedString>

public class LocalizedString
extends Object
implements Localized, Serializable, Comparable<LocalizedString>

A special string container that holds a key, and returns the localized version of that key on toString(). At the time of creation, however, it stores the value of the key in the default locale, and returns that value should the key not be available later. This makes it possible to serialize and send this class to different scopes, where the key may or may not be available when it comes time to use it.

NOTE: In cases where a LocalizedString object is required, but the value isn't actually localizable, you can use the static createRaw() function.
