/**
 * Defines all the messages that may be used in the Directory Server and tools.
 * Localizable message format strings are stored in properties files and are
 * used to generate <code>MessageDescriptor</code>s at build time.  Descriptors
 * sepcify a category, severity, and ordinal value that is unique to other
 * messages of the same category.  For the server in particular, these
 * three values form an ID that is unique among all messages in OpenDS system.
 * Descriptors also specify a key that is used to access the locale-sensitive
 * format string from the property file that may also contain argument
 * specifiers that are used to parameterize messages according to the rules of
 * <code>java.util.Formatter</code>.
