 However, usage of the MapGuide API in this context reveals a major teething issue around exceptions. Namely any exceptions thrown in this context will not have localizable error messages because the MapGuide API has not initialized with an appropriate string bundle. As a result, exceptions thrown from the MapGuide API in this particular context will not contain any useful error messages.
