## Interface ResourceBundleControlProvider

-     public interface ResourceBundleControlProvider

  An interface for service providers that provide implementations of `ResourceBundle.Control`. The default resource bundle loading behavior of the `ResourceBundle.getBundle` factory methods that take no `ResourceBundle.Control` instance can be modified with `ResourceBundleControlProvider` implementations.

  Provider implementations must be packaged using the Java Extension Mechanism as installed extensions. Refer to `ServiceLoader` for the extension packaging. Any installed `ResourceBundleControlProvider` implementations are loaded using `ServiceLoader` at the `ResourceBundle` class loading time.

  Since:
    1.8
  See Also:
    `ResourceBundle.getBundle`, `ServiceLoader.loadInstalled(Class)`
