Interface MessageInterpolator

All Superinterfaces:

DeltaSpikeConfig, Serializable

public interface MessageInterpolator
extends Serializable, DeltaSpikeConfig

Implementations are responsible to replace placeholders in a message with the final value.

An application can provide an own implementation as @Alternative.

A simple implementation which uses the String.format(java.util.Locale, String, Object...) will be used by default.
