MessageFormat not formatting when single quotes are included

java

Solution

The single quote must be escaped using a double single quote:

String sss = "{0}SomeText{1}''.{2}S..."

Problem

I am passing in text which is combination of {} filler and text. I am trying to fill {} with some values and tried using MessageFormat. ``` String sss = "{0}SomeText{1}\'.{2}SomeText{2}SomeText{0}{0}SomeText{2}{0}SomeText{0}{1}SomeText{0}{2}{0}{0}{1}{0}{2}{0}{0}{2}{0}{0}{1}{0}{2}{0}"; Object[] testArgs = {"nits1", "Nits2","nits#"}; System.out.println(MessageFormat.format(sss,testArgs)); ``` OUTPUT ``` nits1SomeTextNits2.{2}SomeText{2}SomeText{0}{0}SomeText{2}{0}SomeText{0}{1}SomeText{0}{2}{0}{0}{1}{0}{2}{0}{0}{2}{0}{0}{1}{0}{2}{0} ```
