public interface TranslationRegistry

      default void registerAll​(@NonNull Locale locale, @NonNull ResourceBundle bundle, boolean escapeSingleQuotes)
      Registers a resource bundle of translations.

      It is highly recommended to create your bundle using UTF8ResourceBundleControl as your bundle control for UTF-8 support - for example:

         final ResourceBundle bundle = ResourceBundle.getBundle("my_bundle", Locale.GERMANY, UTF8ResourceBundleControl.get());
         registry.registerAll(Locale.GERMANY, bundle, false);

      locale - a locale
      bundle - a resource bundle
      escapeSingleQuotes - whether to escape single quotes
