  65  * An interpreter for printf-style format strings.  This class provides support
  66  * for layout justification and alignment, common formats for numeric, string,
  67  * and date/time data, and locale-specific output.  Common Java types such as
  68  * {@code byte}, {@link java.math.BigDecimal BigDecimal}, and {@link Calendar}
  69  * are supported.  Limited formatting customization for arbitrary user types is
  70  * provided through the {@link Formattable} interface.
  71  *
  72  * <p> Formatters are not necessarily safe for multithreaded access.  Thread
  73  * safety is optional and is the responsibility of users of methods in this
  74  * class.
  75  *
  76  * <p> Formatted printing for the Java language is heavily inspired by C's
  77  * {@code printf}.  Although the format strings are similar to C, some
  78  * customizations have been made to accommodate the Java language and exploit
  79  * some of its features.  Also, Java formatting is more strict than C's; for
  80  * example, if a conversion is incompatible with a flag, an exception will be
  81  * thrown.  In C inapplicable flags are silently ignored.  The format strings
  82  * are thus intended to be recognizable to C programmers but not necessarily
  83  * completely compatible with those in C.
  84  *
  85  * <p> Examples of expected usage:
  86  *
  87  * <blockquote><pre>
  88  *   StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
  89  *   // Send all output to the Appendable object sb
  90  *   Formatter formatter = new Formatter(sb, Locale.US);
  91  *
  92  *   // Explicit argument indices may be used to re-order output.
  93  *   formatter.format("%4$2s %3$2s %2$2s %1$2s", "a", "b", "c", "d")
  94  *   // -&gt; " d  c  b  a"
  95  *
  96  *   // Optional locale as the first argument can be used to get
  97  *   // locale-specific formatting of numbers.  The precision and width can be
  98  *   // given to round and align the value.
  99  *   formatter.format(Locale.FRANCE, "e = %+10.4f", Math.E);
 100  *   // -&gt; "e =    +2,7183"
 101  *
 102  *   // The '(' numeric flag may be used to format negative numbers with
 103  *   // parentheses rather than a minus sign.  Group separators are
 104  *   // automatically inserted.
 105  *   formatter.format("Amount gained or lost since last statement: $ %(,.2f",
 106  *                    balanceDelta);
 107  *   // -&gt; "Amount gained or lost since last statement: $ (6,217.58)"
 108  * </pre></blockquote>
 109  *
 110  * <p> Convenience methods for common formatting requests exist as illustrated
 111  * by the following invocations:
 112  *
 113  * <blockquote><pre>
 114  *   // Writes a formatted string to System.out.
 115  *   System.out.format("Local time: %tT", Calendar.getInstance());
 116  *   // -&gt; "Local time: 13:34:18"
 117  *
 118  *   // Writes formatted output to System.err.
 119  *   System.err.printf("Unable to open file '%1$s': %2$s",
 120  *                     fileName, exception.getMessage());
 121  *   // -&gt; "Unable to open file 'food': No such file or directory"
 122  * </pre></blockquote>
 123  *
 124  * <p> Like C's {@code sprintf(3)}, Strings may be formatted using the static
 125  * method {@link String#format(String,Object...) String.format}:
 126  *
 127  * <blockquote><pre>
 128  *   // Format a string containing a date.
 129  *   import java.util.Calendar;
 130  *   import java.util.GregorianCalendar;
 131  *   import static java.util.Calendar.*;
 132  *
 133  *   Calendar c = new GregorianCalendar(1995, MAY, 23);
 134  *   String s = String.format("Duke's Birthday: %1$tb %1$te, %1$tY", c);
 135  *   // -&gt; s == "Duke's Birthday: May 23, 1995"
 136  * </pre></blockquote>

 138  * <h3><a name="org">Organization</a></h3>
 139  *
 140  * <p> This specification is divided into two sections.  The first section, <a
 141  * href="#summary">Summary</a>, covers the basic formatting concepts.  This
 142  * section is intended for users who want to get started quickly and are
 143  * familiar with formatted printing in other programming languages.  The second
 144  * section, <a href="#detail">Details</a>, covers the specific implementation
 145  * details.  It is intended for users who want more precise specification of
 146  * formatting behavior.
 147  *
 148  * <h3><a name="summary">Summary</a></h3>
 149  *
 150  * <p> This section is intended to provide a brief overview of formatting
 151  * concepts.  For precise behavioral details, refer to the <a
 152  * href="#detail">Details</a> section.
 153  *
 154  * <h4><a name="syntax">Format String Syntax</a></h4>
 155  *
 156  * <p> Every method which produces formatted output requires a <i>format
 157  * string</i> and an <i>argument list</i>.  The format string is a {@link
 158  * String} which may contain fixed text and one or more embedded <i>format
 159  * specifiers</i>.  Consider the following example:
 160  *
 161  * <blockquote><pre>
 162  *   Calendar c = ...;
 163  *   String s = String.format("Duke's Birthday: %1$tm %1$te,%1$tY", c);
 164  * </pre></blockquote>
 165  *
 166  * This format string is the first argument to the {@code format} method.  It
 167  * contains three format specifiers "{@code %1$tm}", "{@code %1$te}", and
 168  * "{@code %1$tY}" which indicate how the arguments should be processed and
 169  * where they should be inserted in the text.  The remaining portions of the
 170  * format string are fixed text including {@code "Dukes Birthday: "} and any
 171  * other spaces or punctuation.
 172  *
 173  * The argument list consists of all arguments passed to the method after the
 174  * format string.  In the above example, the argument list is of size one and
 175  * consists of the {@link java.util.Calendar Calendar} object {@code c}.
 176  *
 177  * <ul>
 178  *
 179  * <li> The format specifiers for general, character, and numeric types have
 180  * the following syntax:
 181  *
 182  * <blockquote><pre>
 183  *   %[argument_index$][flags][width][.precision]conversion
 184  * </pre></blockquote>
 185  *
 186  * <p> The optional <i>argument_index</i> is a decimal integer indicating the
 187  * position of the argument in the argument list.  The first argument is
 188  * referenced by "{@code 1$}", the second by "{@code 2$}", etc.
 189  *
 190  * <p> The optional <i>flags</i> is a set of characters that modify the output
 191  * format.  The set of valid flags depends on the conversion.
 192  *
 193  * <p> The optional <i>width</i> is a positive decimal integer indicating
 194  * the minimum number of characters to be written to the output.
 195  *
 196  * <p> The optional <i>precision</i> is a non-negative decimal integer usually
 197  * used to restrict the number of characters.  The specific behavior depends on
 198  * the conversion.
 199  *
 200  * <p> The required <i>conversion</i> is a character indicating how the
 201  * argument should be formatted.  The set of valid conversions for a given
 202  * argument depends on the argument's data type.
 203  *
 204  * <li> The format specifiers for types which are used to represents dates and
 205  * times have the following syntax:
 206  *
 207  * <blockquote><pre>
 208  *   %[argument_index$][flags][width]conversion
 209  * </pre></blockquote>
 210  *
 211  * <p> The optional <i>argument_index</i>, <i>flags</i> and <i>width</i> are
 212  * defined as above.
 213  *
 214  * <p> The required <i>conversion</i> is a two character sequence.  The first
 215  * character is {@code 't'} or {@code 'T'}.  The second character indicates
 216  * the format to be used.  These characters are similar to but not completely
 217  * identical to those defined by GNU {@code date} and POSIX
 218  * {@code strftime(3c)}.
 219  *
 220  * <li> The format specifiers which do not correspond to arguments have the
 221  * following syntax:
 222  *
 223  * <blockquote><pre>
 224  *   %[flags][width]conversion
 225  * </pre></blockquote>
 226  *
 227  * <p> The optional <i>flags</i> and <i>width</i> is defined as above.
 228  *
 229  * <p> The required <i>conversion</i> is a character indicating content to be
 230  * inserted in the output.
 231  *
 232  * </ul>
 233  *
 234  * <h4> Conversions </h4>
 235  *
 236  * <p> Conversions are divided into the following categories:
 237  *
 238  * <ol>
 239  *
 240  * <li> <b>General</b> - may be applied to any argument
 241  * type
 242  *
 243  * <li> <b>Character</b> - may be applied to basic types which represent
 244  * Unicode characters: {@code char}, {@link Character}, {@code byte}, {@link
 245  * Byte}, {@code short}, and {@link Short}. This conversion may also be
 246  * applied to the types {@code int} and {@link Integer} when {@link
 247  * Character#isValidCodePoint} returns {@code true}
 248  *
 249  * <li> <b>Numeric</b>
 250  *
 251  * <ol>
 252  *
 253  * <li> <b>Integral</b> - may be applied to Java integral types: {@code byte},
 254  * {@link Byte}, {@code short}, {@link Short}, {@code int} and {@link
 255  * Integer}, {@code long}, {@link Long}, and {@link java.math.BigInteger
 256  * BigInteger} (but not {@code char} or {@link Character})
 257  *
 258  * <li><b>Floating Point</b> - may be applied to Java floating-point types:
 259  * {@code float}, {@link Float}, {@code double}, {@link Double}, and {@link
 260  * java.math.BigDecimal BigDecimal}
 261  *
 262  * </ol>
 263  *
 264  * <li> <b>Date/Time</b> - may be applied to Java types which are capable of
 265  * encoding a date or time: {@code long}, {@link Long}, {@link Calendar},
 266  * {@link Date} and {@link TemporalAccessor TemporalAccessor}
 267  *
 268  * <li> <b>Percent</b> - produces a literal {@code '%'}
 269  * (<tt>'\u0025'</tt>)
 270  *
 271  * <li> <b>Line Separator</b> - produces the platform-specific line separator
 272  *
 273  * </ol>
 274  *
 275  * <p> The following table summarizes the supported conversions.  Conversions
 276  * denoted by an upper-case character (i.e. {@code 'B'}, {@code 'H'},
 277  * {@code 'S'}, {@code 'C'}, {@code 'X'}, {@code 'E'}, {@code 'G'},
 278  * {@code 'A'}, and {@code 'T'}) are the same as those for the corresponding
 279  * lower-case conversion characters except that the result is converted to
 280  * upper case according to the rules of the prevailing {@link java.util.Locale
 281  * Locale}.  The result is equivalent to the following invocation of {@link
 282  * String#toUpperCase()}

 618  * <h4> Width </h4>
 619  *
 620  * <p> The width is the minimum number of characters to be written to the

 622  * is provided, an exception will be thrown.
 623  *
 624  * <h4> Precision </h4>
 625  *
 626  * <p> For general argument types, the precision is the maximum number of
 627  * characters to be written to the output.
 628  *
 629  * <p> For the floating-point conversions {@code 'a'}, {@code 'A'}, {@code 'e'},
 630  * {@code 'E'}, and {@code 'f'} the precision is the number of digits after the
 631  * radix point.  If the conversion is {@code 'g'} or {@code 'G'}, then the
 632  * precision is the total number of digits in the resulting magnitude after
 633  * rounding.
 634  *
 635  * <p> For character, integral, and date/time argument types and the percent
 636  * and line separator conversions, the precision is not applicable; if a
 637  * precision is provided, an exception will be thrown.
 638  *
 639  * <h4> Argument Index </h4>
 640  *
 641  * <p> The argument index is a decimal integer indicating the position of the
 642  * argument in the argument list.  The first argument is referenced by
 643  * "{@code 1$}", the second by "{@code 2$}", etc.
 644  *
 645  * <p> Another way to reference arguments by position is to use the
 646  * {@code '<'} (<tt>'\u003c'</tt>) flag, which causes the argument for
 647  * the previous format specifier to be re-used.  For example, the following two
 648  * statements would produce identical strings:
 649  *
 650  * <blockquote><pre>
 651  *   Calendar c = ...;
 652  *   String s1 = String.format("Duke's Birthday: %1$tm %1$te,%1$tY", c);
 653  *
 654  *   String s2 = String.format("Duke's Birthday: %1$tm %&lt;te,%&lt;tY", c);
 655  * </pre></blockquote>

 660  * <p> This section is intended to provide behavioral details for formatting,
 661  * including conditions and exceptions, supported data types, localization, and

 663  * formatting concepts, refer to the <a href="#summary">Summary</a>
 664  *
 665  * <p> Any characters not explicitly defined as conversions, date/time
 666  * conversion suffixes, or flags are illegal and are reserved for
 667  * future extensions.  Use of such a character in a format string will
 668  * cause an {@link UnknownFormatConversionException} or {@link
 669  * UnknownFormatFlagsException} to be thrown.
 670  *
 671  * <p> If the format specifier contains a width or precision with an invalid
 672  * value or which is otherwise unsupported, then a {@link
 673  * IllegalFormatWidthException} or {@link IllegalFormatPrecisionException}
 674  * respectively will be thrown.
 675  *
 676  * <p> If a format specifier contains a conversion character that is not
 677  * applicable to the corresponding argument, then an {@link
 678  * IllegalFormatConversionException} will be thrown.
 679  *
 680  * <p> All specified exceptions may be thrown by any of the {@code format}
 681  * methods of {@code Formatter} as well as by any {@code format} convenience
 682  * methods such as {@link String#format(String,Object...) String.format} and
 683  * {@link java.io.PrintStream#printf(String,Object...) PrintStream.printf}.
 684  *
 685  * <p> Conversions denoted by an upper-case character (i.e. {@code 'B'},
 686  * {@code 'H'}, {@code 'S'}, {@code 'C'}, {@code 'X'}, {@code 'E'},
 687  * {@code 'G'}, {@code 'A'}, and {@code 'T'}) are the same as those for the
 688  * corresponding lower-case conversion characters except that the result is
 689  * converted to upper case according to the rules of the prevailing {@link

1782  * <h4><a name="dpos">Argument Index</a></h4>
1783  *
1784  * <p> Format specifiers can reference arguments in three ways:
1785  *
1786  * <ul>
1787  *
1788  * <li> <i>Explicit indexing</i> is used when the format specifier contains an
1789  * argument index.  The argument index is a decimal integer indicating the
1790  * position of the argument in the argument list.  The first argument is
1791  * referenced by "{@code 1$}", the second by "{@code 2$}", etc.  An argument
1792  * may be referenced more than once.
1793  *
1794  * <p> For example:
1795  *
1796  * <blockquote><pre>
1797  *   formatter.format("%4$s %3$s %2$s %1$s %4$s %3$s %2$s %1$s",
1798  *                    "a", "b", "c", "d")
1799  *   // -&gt; "d c b a d c b a"
1800  * </pre></blockquote>
1801  *
1802  * <li> <i>Relative indexing</i> is used when the format specifier contains a
1803  * {@code '<'} (<tt>'\u003c'</tt>) flag which causes the argument for
1804  * the previous format specifier to be re-used.  If there is no previous
1805  * argument, then a {@link MissingFormatArgumentException} is thrown.
1806  *
1807  * <blockquote><pre>
1808  *    formatter.format("%s %s %&lt;s %&lt;s", "a", "b", "c", "d")
1809  *    // -&gt; "a b b b"
1810  *    // "c" and "d" are ignored because they are not referenced
1811  * </pre></blockquote>
1812  *
1813  * <li> <i>Ordinary indexing</i> is used when the format specifier contains
1814  * neither an argument index nor a {@code '<'} flag.  Each format specifier
1815  * which uses ordinary indexing is assigned a sequential implicit index into
1816  * argument list which is independent of the indices used by explicit or
1817  * relative indexing.
1818  *
1819  * <blockquote><pre>
1820  *   formatter.format("%s %s %s %s", "a", "b", "c", "d")
1821  *   // -&gt; "a b c d"
1822  * </pre></blockquote>
1823  *
1824  * </ul>
1825  *
1826  * <p> It is possible to have a format string which uses all forms of indexing,
1827  * for example:
1828  *
1829  * <blockquote><pre>
1830  *   formatter.format("%2$s %s %&lt;s %s", "a", "b", "c", "d")
1831  *   // -&gt; "b a a b"
1832  *   // "c" and "d" are ignored because they are not referenced
1833  * </pre></blockquote>
1834  *
1835  * <p> The maximum number of arguments is limited by the maximum dimension of a
1836  * Java array as defined by
1837  * <cite>The Java&trade; Virtual Machine Specification</cite>.
1838  * If the argument index is does not correspond to an
1839  * available argument, then a {@link MissingFormatArgumentException} is thrown.
1840  *
1841  * <p> If there are more arguments than format specifiers, the extra arguments
1842  * are ignored.
1843  *
1844  * <p> Unless otherwise specified, passing a {@code null} argument to any
1845  * method or constructor in this class will cause a {@link
1846  * NullPointerException} to be thrown.
