java.util.Formattable上的示例是否不正确？

Question

import java.nio.CharBuffer;
import java.util.Formatter;
import java.util.Formattable;
import java.util.Locale;
import static java.util.FormattableFlags.*;

public class StockName implements Formattable {
    private String symbol, companyName, frenchCompanyName;
    public StockName(String symbol, String companyName,
                     String frenchCompanyName) {
        this.symbol = symbol;
        this.companyName = companyName;
        this.frenchCompanyName = frenchCompanyName;
    }

    public void formatTo(Formatter fmt, int f, int width, int precision) {
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

        // decide form of name
        String name = companyName;
        if (fmt.locale().equals(Locale.FRANCE))
            name = frenchCompanyName;
        boolean alternate = (f & ALTERNATE) == ALTERNATE;
        boolean usesymbol = alternate || (precision != -1 && precision < 10);
        String out = (usesymbol ? symbol : name);

        // apply precision
        if (precision == -1 || out.length() < precision) {
            // write it all
            sb.append(out);
        } else {
            sb.append(out.substring(0, precision - 1)).append('*');
        }

        // apply width and justification
        int len = sb.length();
        if (len < width)
            for (int i = 0; i < width - len; i++)
                if ((f & LEFT_JUSTIFY) == LEFT_JUSTIFY)
                    sb.append(' ');
                else
                    sb.insert(0, ' ');

        fmt.format(sb.toString());
    }

    public String toString() {
        return String.format("%s - %s", symbol, companyName);
    }
}

System.out.printf("%s", new StockName("HUGE", "Huge Fruit, Inc.", "Fruit Titanesque, Inc."));

System.out.printf("%s", new StockName("PERC", "%Company, Inc.", "Fruit Titanesque, Inc."));

为了澄清，在这种假设情况下，给stockname的参数是由用户控制的，可以是任意的；我对它们没有确切的控制权（我不能禁止输入%)。但是，我可以编辑stockname.formatto。

Answer 1

其实很简单。只能在格式化过程中转义百分比字符，而不能在原始属性中转义：

  // apply precision
  if (precision == -1 || out.length() < precision) {
    // write it all
    sb.append(out.replaceAll("%", "%%"));
  }
  else {
    sb.append(out.substring(0, precision - 1).replaceAll("%", "%%")).append('*');
  }

那么如果你这样做：

StockName stockName = new StockName("HUGE", "%Huge Fruit, Inc.", "Fruit Titanesque, Inc.");
System.out.printf("%s%n", stockName);
System.out.printf("%s%n", stockName.toString());
System.out.printf("%#s%n", stockName);
System.out.printf("%-10.8s%n", stockName);
System.out.printf("%.12s%n", stockName);
System.out.printf(Locale.FRANCE, "%25s%n", stockName);

输出如下所示：

%Huge Fruit, Inc.
HUGE - %Huge Fruit, Inc.
HUGE
HUGE      
%Huge Fruit*
   Fruit Titanesque, Inc.
