Thanks for the answer but the problem is that I have 2 different
messages for the same exception I'll show the part of the code.

try{
...
} catch (SocketException e) {
throw new CustomException(e.getMessage());
// e.getMessage() can return "Network unreachable" or can return
"The operation timed out" both from SocketException.
// and for now CustomException translate it comparing string
literals.
}

What I want to do is show these two messages but translated and I
don't want to do it comparing string literal.
Any ideas?
