    System.out.println(myResources.getString("okKey"));
    System.out.println(myResources.getString("cancelKey"));

    System.out.println("\nChecking okKey in resource bundle:");
    if (myResources.containsKey("okKey")) {

    } else {
      System.out.println("The key Doesn"t Exist");
    }
    System.out.println("\nGet a set of keys:");
    Set<String> keySet = myResources.keySet();
    Object[] keys = keySet.toArray();
    for (int i = 0; i < keys.length; i++) {

    }
  }
}
/*
