在番石榴中，这很简单:

Strings.padStart("string", 10, ' ');
Strings.padEnd("string", 10, ' ');

在Dzone上找到的

用零填充:

String.format("|%020d|", 93); // prints: |00000000000000000093|

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...

Java联机程序，没有花哨的库。

// 6 characters padding example
String pad = "******";
// testcases for 0, 4, 8 characters
String input = "" | "abcd" | "abcdefgh"

左Pad，不要限制

result = pad.substring(Math.min(input.length(),pad.length())) + input;
results: "******" | "**abcd" | "abcdefgh"

右移，不要限制

result = input + pad.substring(Math.min(input.length(),pad.length()));
results: "******" | "abcd**" | "abcdefgh"

左衬垫，限制衬垫长度

result = (pad + input).substring(input.length(), input.length() + pad.length());
results: "******" | "**abcd" | "cdefgh"

右垫，限制垫的长度

result = (input + pad).substring(0, pad.length());
results: "******" | "abcd**" | "abcdef"

public static String padLeft(String in, int size, char padChar) {                
    if (in.length() <= size) {
        char[] temp = new char[size];
        /* Llenado Array con el padChar*/
        for(int i =0;i<size;i++){
            temp[i]= padChar;
        }
        int posIniTemp = size-in.length();
        for(int i=0;i<in.length();i++){
            temp[posIniTemp]=in.charAt(i);
            posIniTemp++;
        }            
        return new String(temp);
    }
    return "";
}

一个简单的解决方案是:

package nl;
public class Padder {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String s = "123" ;
        System.out.println("#"+("     " + s).substring(s.length())+"#");
    }
}
