Apache StringUtils有几个方法:leftPad, rightPad, center和repeat。

但是请注意，正如其他人在这个回答中提到和演示的那样，JDK中的String.format()和Formatter类是更好的选择。使用它们而不是公共代码。

这是一个高效的实用工具类，用于Java中的左填充，右填充，中心填充和零填充字符串。

package com.example;

/**
 * Utility class for left pad, right pad, center pad and zero fill.
 */
public final class StringPadding {

    public static String left(String string, int length, char fill) {

        if (string.length() < length) {

            char[] chars = string.toCharArray();
            char[] output = new char[length];

            int delta = length - chars.length;

            for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) {
                if (i < delta) {
                    output[i] = fill;
                } else {
                    output[i] = chars[i - delta];
                }
            }

            return new String(output);
        }

        return string;
    }

    public static String right(String string, int length, char fill) {

        if (string.length() < length) {

            char[] chars = string.toCharArray();
            char[] output = new char[length];

            for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) {
                if (i < chars.length) {
                    output[i] = chars[i];
                } else {
                    output[i] = fill;
                }
            }

            return new String(output);
        }

        return string;
    }

    public static String center(String string, int length, char fill) {

        if (string.length() < length) {

            char[] chars = string.toCharArray();

            int delta = length - chars.length;
            int a = (delta % 2 == 0) ? delta / 2 : delta / 2 + 1;
            int b = a + chars.length;

            char[] output = new char[length];
            for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) {
                if (i < a) {
                    output[i] = fill;
                } else if (i < b) {
                    output[i] = chars[i - a];
                } else {
                    output[i] = fill;
                }
            }

            return new String(output);
        }

        return string;
    }

    public static String zerofill(String string, int length) {
        return left(string, length, '0');
    }

    private StringPadding() {
    }

    /**
     * For tests!
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        String string = "123";
        char blank = ' ';

        System.out.println("left pad:    [" + StringPadding.left(string, 10, blank) + "]");
        System.out.println("right pad:   [" + StringPadding.right(string, 10, blank) + "]");
        System.out.println("center pad:  [" + StringPadding.center(string, 10, blank) + "]");
        System.out.println("zero fill:   [" + StringPadding.zerofill(string, 10) + "]");
    }
}

输出如下:

left pad:    [       123]
right pad:   [123       ]
center pad:  [    123   ]
zero fill:   [0000000123]

public static String LPad(String str, Integer length, char car) {
  return (str + String.format("%" + length + "s", "").replace(" ", String.valueOf(car))).substring(0, length);
}

public static String RPad(String str, Integer length, char car) {
  return (String.format("%" + length + "s", "").replace(" ", String.valueOf(car)) + str).substring(str.length(), length + str.length());
}

LPad("Hi", 10, 'R') //gives "RRRRRRRRHi"
RPad("Hi", 10, 'R') //gives "HiRRRRRRRR"
RPad("Hi", 10, ' ') //gives "Hi        "
RPad("Hi", 1, ' ')  //gives "H"
//etc...

formatter会做左右填充。不需要奇怪的第三方依赖关系(您会为如此微不足道的事情添加它们吗)。

[我省略了细节，把这篇文章做成“社区维基”，因为这不是我需要的东西。]

如此:

"".format("%1$-" + 9 + "s", "XXX").replaceAll(" ", "0")

它会用空白填充你的字符串XXX，最多9个字符。在此之后，所有空格将被替换为0。你可以把空格和0改为任何你想要的…
