<p>The OpenFaces <cite>LoadBundle</cite> component is used for loading a resource bundle localized for
    the Locale of the current view, and expose it (as a Map) in the request attributes of the current
    request. The <u>&lt;o:loadBundle&gt;</u> component is similar to the standard <u>&lt;f:loadBundle&gt;</u>
    tag it but can be used in the components with Ajax enabled.</p>

<h4><a name="LoadBundle2.x-CreatingtheLoadBundle"></a>Creating the LoadBundle</h4>

<p>The usage of the OpenFaces <cite>LoadBundle</cite> component is similar to the same component from the Reference
    or MyFaces JSF implementation. To add the <cite>LoadBundle</cite> component to the page, use the <u>&lt;o:loadBundle&gt;</u>
    tag. This tag has only <b>var</b> and <b>basename</b> attributes. The <b>var</b> attribute specifies the name of
    a request-scope variable under which the resource bundle is available. There are two ways to access keys of the
    resource bundle:</p>
<ol>
    <li>#{bunble.propertyKey}</li>
    <li>#{bundle['propertyKey']}</li>
</ol>


<p>The <b>basename</b> attribute specifies the path to the resource bundle file. The resource bundle file should be
    available in the classpath.</p>

<p>Here is an example of the resource bundle in the h:outputText component.</p>

<div class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;">
    <div class="codeContent panelContent">

<o:loadBundle basename="my.resources.TestLoadBundle" var="bundle"/>
...
<h:outputText value="#{bundle.todayString}"/>

    </div>
</div>
<p>In this example the resource bundle is located in WEB-INF/classes/my/resources directory. And there is a
    "todayString" property key in the TestLoadBundle resource bundle.</p>

<p>In the following example the resource bundle in located in WEB-INF/classes directory and the "todayString"
    property key is used.</p>

<div class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;">
    <div class="codeContent panelContent">

<o:loadBundle basename="TestLoadBundle" var="bundle"/>
...
<h:outputText value="#{bundle['todayString']}"/>

    </div>
