All Implemented Interfaces:

MLString, java.io.Serializable

public class HashMLString

extends java.lang.Object

implements MLString, java.io.Serializable

MLString is a multi-language string. An MLString allows you to store different language of the same value in the same object and retrieve a particular version based on Locale. This is designed to be used by data objects representing customization data. The Portal has a convention that many customization values should be multi-lingual. I.e. a user can store a value per language. Language is controlled via the browser's language preference setting.
