MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name

Question

this is my working tree

Object selecao = jComboBox1.getSelectedItem();
if(selecao.equals("English")){
    //Locale local = new Locale("en", "EN");
    this.bundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle("Presentation.Bundle", Locale.UK);
    this.jLabel1.setText(bundle.getString("IdiomaUI.jLabel1.text"));
    this.confirmarBt.setText(bundle.getString("IdiomaUI.confirmarBt.text"));
    this.cancelarBt.setText(bundle.getString("IdiomaUI.cancelarBt.text"));
}else if(selecao.equals("Português")){
    this.bundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle("Presentation.Bundle");
    this.jLabel1.setText(bundle.getString("IdiomaUI.jLabel1.text"));
    this.confirmarBt.setText(bundle.getString("IdiomaUI.confirmarBt.text"));
    this.cancelarBt.setText(bundle.getString("IdiomaUI.cancelarBt.text"));
}

I'm getting the error: "Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base name Presentation.Bundle, locale pt_PT":

I've already searched about this and i haven't figured it out what the problem is. Help please!

Answer 1

If your Locale is set to Portuguese then the ResourceBundle will attempt to load content from a properties file called Bundle_pt_PT.properties . According to the screenshot you don't have this in your project.

Take a look here for more information on ResourceBundles/localisation in Java And here for some general information on supported Locales.
