- Method Detail
  - load
```
PropertyFile load(InputStream in,
                  String encoding)
           throws IOException
```
    loads the given input stream and transform it into a PropertyFile
    The implementation is expected to close the stream upon completion
    
    Parameters:
    
    in -
    
    encoding - hint about which encoding to use
    
    Returns:
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
  - write
```
int write(OutputStream out,
          PropertyFile file,
          String encoding)
   throws IOException
```
    serializes the given PropertyFile into the output steam
    The implementation is expected to close the stream upon completion
    The implementation is free to optimize the output by removing empty translations.
    
    Parameters:
    
    out -
    
    file -
    
    encoding - hint about which encoding to use
    
    Returns:
