<p>The <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">LocalizableMessage</span></code> class represents localizable string and message

template. Classes include one or more localizable message templates in the

exceptions they report so that clients can display diagnostic messages in

the native language of the user. Classes can include localizable strings in

the data returned from methods to allow clients to display localized status

information in the native language of the user.</p>
