------------------------------------------
Hi [~helloJuhyun],
I also tried to reproduce the infinite loop, but unable to do so like [~kinow] .
This below code of yours is causing the existing validation to be failed and I
am getting the expected error message "startMillis must not be greater than
endMillis"
DurationFormatUtils.formatPeriod(1608377400000, -62170189200000, "HH:mm:ss");
Could you do a recheck and perhaps debug formatPeriod() from your project code
to check how it is going to the while loops down the line even if endMillis
argument is less than startMillis.
If you are able to find out the reason, I will be happy to know the same, so
please share your thoughts.
