Code Snippet
import company.util.Dbg; // A fully qualified class name
import company.project.*; // Label is in the company.project package.
[...]
Dbg dbg = Dbg.getInstance();
Label lbl = new Label();
[...]
dbg.setText("{0}: {1} action taken.");
[...]
label.setText("Menu");
This snippet of code does have strings.
The class company.project.Dbg is a debug class and the text method puts the String parameter into a database for support purposes. That string is not visible to the end user. In that instance, the setText method on a variable of type company.project.Dbg should be filtered.
The variable lbl of class company.project.Label represents a text area in the User Interface and the setText method passes a user visible string. The string Menu passed to this setText method should be flagged: It needs to be externalized out of the code into a resource bundle.
