Customizing the menu structure
When creating customized screens, verify that users can access them, either through a menu structure or through navigation.
Customizing the menu requires first laying out the structure of
the menu through the Applications Manager graphical user interface, and then
specifying the literals in the resource bundle. A resource bundle
is a file that contains all of the on-screen literals and messages. provides
the following standard resource bundles:
- ycpapibundle.properties - contains the literals used by the standard menu and on-screen messages. It cannot be modified.
- extnbundle.properties - contains the literals used by the custom menus. It can be customized and localized as needed.
You can create custom resource bundles that contain the modifications you make to the custom menu.
Note: When customizing the menu, verify that the menu
description does not contain spaces or any other character that cannot
be a valid resource bundle key as defined by Java™ standards.
