Translation Notes & Gotchas

• Any messages that contain arguments (i.e., {0}, etc) must have any single quotes (') replaced with two single quotes (' '). Spring's ResourceBundleMessageSource uses MessageFormat for replacing placeholders ({0}) inside messages. MessageFormat requires that single quotes (') are escaped using two single quotes ('') (see: MessageFormat Javadoc).
