in GWT, can we manage Messages & Constants (i18n) at Server as we manage at Client?

Messages & Constants (com.google.gwt.i18n.client.Constants & com.google.gwt.i18n.client.Messages) in GWT allow us to put all Messages & Constants into properties files so that we can change these messages & constants at any time we want without the need to recompile the whole webapp when we need to change them.

Ex: you have a message call "User451 pls views order" in myMessages.properties

userViewOrder=User''{0}'' pls views order

& in the MyMessages.java

public interface MyMessages extends Messages{      String userViewOrder(String userID);  }

At a later time, the bos wants to change the message to "Customer451 pls views order" then we don't need to recompile the whole project but just need to modify the myMessages.properties file

userViewOrder=Customer''{0}'' pls views order

So my question is, can we achieve the similar thing at the server level?

For example, in server, after inserting order data successfully into DB we need to send a private message to the customer immediately right at the server. Ex:

public boolean isertOrder(String data, String userID){      String sql="insert query here";      ..... more code ....      int resultCode=prepareStmt.executeUpdate();      if (resultCode==1){         //insert a notification into Message table          String msg="Congratulation user "+userID+", You ordered successfully!";   // how to manage this message without needing to recompiling the whole project           String sql="insert into Message values (.....)"         ///do the inserting here      }  }

can we manage Messages & Constants (i18n) at Server as we manage at Client?

Can we be able to do that?

& more importantly, Can we do it safely?
