/** Helper class for constructing messages from bundles.  The intended usage
 * of this class is to construct a new instance bound to a bundle, as in
 * <P>
 * <code>I18NHelper msg = I18NHelper.getInstance("com.sun.org.apache.jdo.util.jdo.Bundle");</code>
 * <P>
 * This call uses the class loader that loaded the I18NHelper class to find
 * the specified Bundle. The class provides two overloaded getInstance
 * methods allowing to specify a different class loader: 
 * {@link #getInstance(Class cls)} looks for a bundle
 * called "Bundle.properties" located in the package of the specified class 
 * object and {@link #getInstance(String bundleName,ClassLoader loader)} 
 * uses the specified class loader to find the bundle.
 * <P>
 * Subsequently, instance methods can be used to format message strings 
 * using the text from the bundle, as in 
 * <P>
 * <code>throw new JDOFatalInternalException (msg.msg("ERR_NoMetadata", cls.getName()));</code>
 * @since 1.0.1
 * @version 1.1
