There are a few ways to achieve this in Java.<br />
Starting with Java 11 you can use the ''String.repeat'' method.
<syntaxhighlight lang="java">
"ha".repeat(5);
</syntaxhighlight>
Which, if you view its implementation, is just using the ''Arrays.fill'' method.
<syntaxhighlight lang="java">
String[] strings = new String[5];
Arrays.fill(strings, "ha");
StringBuilder repeated = new StringBuilder();
for (String string : strings)
repeated.append(string);
</syntaxhighlight>
And if you look at the 'Arrays.fill' implementation, it's just a for-loop, which is likely the most idiomatic approach.
<syntaxhighlight lang="java">
String string = "ha";
StringBuilder repeated = new StringBuilder();
int count = 5;
while (count-- > 0)
repeated.append(string);
</syntaxhighlight>
<br />
Or
{{works with|Java|1.5+}}
<syntaxhighlight lang="java5">public static String repeat(String str, int times) {
