setString

public static void setString(java.lang.String key,
                             java.lang.String value)

Overrides the translation for the given key with the given value. Usually the translation of a key is based on the value of the key as found in a resource bundle file / property file. However, some applications need to override translations based on information found in some other data source than a flat properties file. These applications can use this method to programatically change a translation.
