Java 子字符串 : 'string index out of range'

Question

我猜我收到此错误是因为该字符串正在尝试对 null 值进行子串化。但是 ".length() > 0" 部分不会消除这个问题吗？

这是 Java 代码段:

if (itemdescription.length() > 0) {
    pstmt2.setString(3, itemdescription.substring(0,38));
} 
else { 
    pstmt2.setString(3, "_");
} 

我收到了这个错误:

很遗憾 substring 没有以处理短字符串的方式实现 - 就像在其他语言中一样，例如 python 。

好的，我们无法更改它，并且每次使用 substr 时都必须考虑这种极端情况，而不是 if-else 子句，我会选择这个较短的变体:

myText.substring(0, Math.min(6, myText.length()))
