Incorrect 'MessageFormat' pattern
Reports incorrect message format patterns or incorrect indexes of placeholders
The following errors are reported:
Unparsed or negative index
Unclosed brace
Unpaired quote. In this case, a part of a pattern may not be used
Probably incorrect number of quotes
Incorrect lower bound of nested choice patterns
Incorrect indexes of placeholders. In this case, a placeholder may not be substituted or an argument may not be used
Examples:
MessageFormat.format("{wrong}", 1); // incorrect index
MessageFormat.format("{0", 1); // Unmatched brace
MessageFormat.format("'{0}", 1); // Unpaired quote
MessageFormat.format("It''''s {0}", 1); // "It''s" will be printed, instead of "It's"
MessageFormat.format("{0}", 1, 2); // The argument with index '1' is not used in the pattern
