Class LocalizedStringPropEditor

All Implemented Interfaces:
IThemeListener, IEntryValidator, IEditedPropControllerOwner<StringProp,String>, IEditedPropertyEntry<StringProp,String>, IEditedPropertyEntryMultiProp<StringProp,String>, IPropertyDefined, IDisposedPart

public class LocalizedStringPropEditor extends StringPropEditor implements IEntryValidator
The Localized String Prop editor consists of a simple entry field where all the localized languages are placed, the default language first, followed by the other languages, as a "comma" separated String.

The validator will automatically be set and check the supported languages from the application language definition.

The "options" parameter can be "prompt=text-to-display-in-pop-up menu", defaults to "Select languages".
