single quotes in resources.properties

           Summary: single quotes in resources.properties
           Product: Axis
           Version: 1.1
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Basic Architecture
        AssignedTo: axis-dev@ws.apache.org
        ReportedBy: patrick@zync.at


there are some single quotes in the resources.properties file containing the
axis error messages. this causes some messages to be formatted incorrectly,
e.g., sending a message to an endpoint that does not accept this message returns
the error:

"Couldnt find an appropriate operation for XML QName {0}"

where the actual qname is not returned as the {0} parameter.

the corresponding resource from resources.properties reads:

"noOperationForQName=Couldn't find an appropriate operation for XML QName {0}"

please note the single quote in "Couldn't".

according to the jdk1.4.2 documentation for java.text.MessageFormat:

---
 Within a String, "''" represents a single quote. A QuotedString can contain
arbitrary characters except single quotes; the surrounding single quotes are
removed. An UnquotedString can contain arbitrary characters except single quotes
and left curly brackets. Thus, a string that should result in the formatted
message "'{0}'" can be written as "'''{'0}''" or "'''{0}'''".
---

there are numerous occurrences of single quotes in resources.properties,
especially when used in words like can't, don't, etc.
