== Resource Parameters ==
A resource files contains resources, i.e. strings which are translated. A resource is typically a key value pair. In Java properties files for instance, a key value pair looks like the following:

KEY_DESC=Description of the widget for {userName}.

<code>{userName}</code> is a parameter in this string. It will be replaced by a variable at run time, say, John Smith. To the U.S. English string shown for KEY_DESC will end up looking like <code>Description of the widget for John Smith.</code>

When returning a translated string, the parameter needs to have been preserved, i.e. in the French string will need to include the {userName} parameter. For instance:

KEY_DESC=Description de la widget pour {userName}.

and not

KEY_DESK=Description de la widget pour {nom d'utilisateur}.
