Hello,
I would not encourage makeshift number formatting by mentioning left padding as
a major usecase:
Just remove that part:
+ * <p>
+ * This method may be used to create space padding for
+ * formatting text or zero padding for formatting numbers.
I think this error without an Explanation can be hard to debug. It should be
clear that Memory allocation was not attempted and what the actual Parameters
where:
+ if (Integer.MAX_VALUE / count < len) {
+ throw new OutOfMemoryError();
+ }
„Repeating „ + len + „ bytes „ + count + „ times would produce a String
exceeding maximum size.“
Gruss
