    - #### findText

                                 Locale locale)

      Calls `findText(Class aClass, String aTextName, Locale locale, String defaultMessage, Object[] args)` with aTextName as the default message.
      Parameters:
        `aClass` - class name

        `findText(Class aClass, String aTextName, Locale locale, String defaultMessage, Object[] args)`

    - #### findText

          public String findText(Class aClass,
                                 String aTextName,
                                 Locale locale,
                                 String defaultMessage,
                                 Object[] args)

      Finds a localized text message for the given key, aTextName. Both the key and the message itself is evaluated as required. The following algorithm is used to find the requested message:

      1. If `searchDefaultBundlesFirst` is `true`, look for the message in the default resource bundles first.
      2. Look for message in aClass' class hierarchy.
         1. Look for the message in a resource bundle for aClass
         2. If not found, look for the message in a resource bundle for any implemented interface
         3. If not found, traverse up the Class' hierarchy and repeat from the first sub-step
      3. If not found and aClass is a `ModelDriven` Action, then look for message in the model's class hierarchy (repeat sub-steps listed above).
      4. If not found, look for message in child property. This is determined by evaluating the message key as an OGNL expression. For example, if the key is user.address.state, then it will attempt to see if "user" can be resolved into an object. If so, repeat the entire process from the beginning with the object's class as aClass and "address.state" as the message key.
      5. If not found, look for the message in aClass' package hierarchy.
      6. If still not found, look for the message in the default resource bundles (Note: the lookup is not repeated again if `searchDefaultBundlesFirst` was `true`).
      7. Return defaultMessage

      When looking for the message, if the key indexes a collection (e.g. user.phone[0]) and a message for that specific key cannot be found, the general form will also be looked up (i.e. user.phone[*]).

      If a message is found, it will also be interpolated. Anything within `${...}` will be treated as an OGNL expression and evaluated as such.

      Parameters:
        `aClass` - the class whose name to use as the start point for the search
        `aTextName` - the key to find the text message for
        `locale` - the locale the message should be for
        `defaultMessage` - the message to be returned if no text message can be found in any resource bundle
        `args` - arguments resource bundle
      Returns:
        the localized text, or null if none can be found and no defaultMessage is provided

                                 ValueStack valueStack)

      Finds a localized text message for the given key, aTextName. Both the key and the message itself is evaluated as required. The following algorithm is used to find the requested message:

          public void clearBundle(String bundleName)

      Deprecated. A "no-op" since 6.0.0. Use `clearBundle(java.lang.String, java.util.Locale)` instead.
      Clear a specific bundle from the `bundlesMap`. Warning: This method is now a "no-op". It was ineffective due to the way the `bundlesMap` is used in combination with locale. Descendants should use the method `clearBundle(java.lang.String, java.util.Locale)` instead.
      Parameters:
        `bundleName` - The bundle to remove from the bundle map

    - #### clearBundle

          protected void clearBundle(String bundleName,
                                     Locale locale)

      Clear a specific bundle + locale combination from the `bundlesMap`. Intended for descendants to use clear a bundle + locale combination.
      Parameters:
        `bundleName` - The bundle (combined with locale) to remove from the bundle map
        `locale` - Provides the locale to combine with the bundle to get the key
      Since:
        6.0.0

    - #### clearMissingBundlesCache

          protected void clearMissingBundlesCache()

      Clears the `missingBundles` contents. This allows descendants to clear the "missing bundles cache" when desired (or needed). Note: This method may be used when the `bundlesMap` state has changed in such a way that bundles that were previously "missing" may now be available (e.g. after calling `addDefaultResourceBundle(java.lang.String)` when the `AbstractLocalizedTextProvider` has already been used for failed bundle lookups of a given key, or some transitory state made a bundle lookup fail.
      Since:
        6.0.0

    - #### setSearchDefaultBundlesFirst

          public void setSearchDefaultBundlesFirst(String searchDefaultBundlesFirst)

      Set the `searchDefaultBundlesFirst` flag state. This flag may be used by descendant TextProvider implementations to determine if default bundles should be searched for messages first (before the standard flow of the `LocalizedTextProvider` implementation the descendant provides).
      Parameters:
        `searchDefaultBundlesFirst` - provide `String` "true" or "false" to set the flag state accordingly.
      Since:
        6.0.0

      A helper method that can be used by descendant classes to perform some common two-stage message lookup operations against the default resource bundles. The default resource bundles are searched for a value using key first, then alternateKey when the first search fails, then utilizing defaultMessage (which may be `null`) if both key lookup operations fail.

      A known use case is when a key indexes a collection (e.g. user.phone[0]) for which some specific keys may exist, but not all, along with a general key (e.g. user.phone[*]). In such cases the specific key would be passed in the key parameter and the general key would be passed in the alternateKey parameter.

      Parameters:
        `key` - the initial key to search for a value within the default resource bundles.
        `alternateKey` - the alternate (fall-back) key to search for a value within the default resource bundles, if the initial key lookup fails.
        `locale` - the `Locale` to be used for the default resource bundle lookup.
        `valueStack` - the `ValueStack` associated with the operation.
        `args` - the argument array for parameterized messages (may be `null`).
        `defaultMessage` - the default message `String` to use if both key lookup operations fail.
      Returns:
        the `GetDefaultMessageReturnArg` result containing the processed message lookup (by key first, then alternateKey if key's lookup fails). If both key lookup operations fail, defaultMessage is used for processing. If defaultMessage is `null` then the return result may be `null`.
