Interface IMessageLookup


public interface IMessageLookup
Provides services for externalization of static text messages rendered in a chart. The chart title and axis titles are presently externalizable. Custom series types may choose to make use of the externalization service provided by this interface. Note that the externalization service needs to be implemented by a target host service.
