getResourceString

public static java.lang.String getResourceString(java.util.ResourceBundle bundle,
                                                 java.lang.Object object,
                                                 java.lang.Class baseClass,
                                                 java.lang.String sSubKey)

Gets a resource string from a ResourceBundle for the supplied object. This is done by looking for a string with the key classname.sSubKey, where classname is the class name of object. If a string is found under this key it is returned, otherwise the process is repeated for the super class. If it gets to the suplied baseClass and it still hasn't found a string value it throws a MissingResourceException. This allows for the easy overriding of resource strings without overriding any methods in the base classes.
