java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1
public modString(String s) {
char c = s.charAt(s.length()-1); // getting error here
if (!Character.isDigit(c))
s = (c + s.substring(0, s.length()-1));
return s;
}
I am getting the error here when I pass String in method above: +00000000000
I am
char c = s.charAt(s.length()-1); // getting error here
if (!Character.isDigit(c))
s = (c + s.substring(0, s.length()-1));
return s;
}

I am calling it from another method. The calling line is:
telcoAPI.setSessionData(Co
It fails at this call.
telcoAPI.setSessionData(Co
It fails at this call.

also yes it returns string:
public static String modString(String s) {
char c = s.charAt(s.length()-1); // getting error here
if (!Character.isDigit(c))
s = (c + s.substring(0, s.length()-1));
return s;
}
public static String modString(String s) {
char c = s.charAt(s.length()-1); // getting error here
if (!Character.isDigit(c))
s = (c + s.substring(0, s.length()-1));
return s;
}
I think you at some point pass it an empty string - just string with zero charcaters ""
You show the code where you are actually calling it
this does not have the call:
telcoAPI.setSessionData(Co
just printout the string which you are passing to it every time - you'll probably see when it is empty string

sorry, here is the call:
telcoAPI.setSessionData(Co
telcoAPI.setSessionData(Co
well, it is very probable that XPathAPI.eval(doc, "/XMLInfo/Data/AccountInfo
with it it just becomes empty string "" (nothing between the quotes) and then you'll get this exception.
So modify it the way i suggested - check for the string length - and if it is zero - don't use this char c = s.charAt(s.length()-1);
just return the same empty string or do somthing else , but don't call this method, which will definitely cayuse problems in this case

k, let me check
It does not have any return type required for a method.
