Class NameTranslations

java.lang.Object

com.priint.pubserver.lang.NameTranslations

public final class NameTranslations
extends Object

A helper class for bundling language-to-name maps. It assures a Language.DEFAULT translation is always provided on its initialization. It has init methods simplifying its initialization:

   private static final NameTranslations nameTranslations = NameTranslations.of(
             Language.DE, "Setze Nächste Dokument-Stage",
             Language.EN, "Set Next Document Stage"
   );
 

Finally, it encapsulates a consistent way of getting a translation in a desired language, expressed by a Language object or by a simple 2-char String representation of it. It makes sure that even if the language one provides is not supported for any reason, at the very least the default translation will be returned.
