format

default String format(String format)
               throws IllegalFormatException

A format specification is composed of characters that are to be copied verbatim to the result and specifiers that denote an attribute of this method that is to be copied to the result. A specifier is a single character preceded by a '%' character. The accepted specifiers and the method attributes they denote are described below:

     Specifier | Description                                          | Example(s)
     ----------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     'R'       | Qualified return type                                | "int" "java.lang.String"
     'r'       | Unqualified return type                              | "int" "String"
     'H'       | Qualified holder                                     | "java.util.Map.Entry"

     'P'       | Qualified parameter types, separated by ', '         | "int, java.lang.String"
     'p'       | Unqualified parameter types, separated by ', '       | "int, String"
     'f'       | Indicator if method is unresolved, static or virtual | "unresolved" "static" "virtual"
     '%'       | A '%' character                                      | "%"
