      public abstract class PostfixedApplicationResource
      extends Object
      implements ApplicationResource

  An ApplicationResource whose localization is managed by postfixing the file name. The various localizations are file sitting next to each other, with the locale identified in the postfix.

  For instance:

       /WEB-INF/tiles.xml
       /WEB-INF/tiles_fr.xml
       /WEB-INF/tiles_it.xml
       /WEB-INF/tiles_it_IT.xml

  Two PostfixedApplicationResources are equals if they share the same localized path and the same class.
