The method StringBuffer.getChars(int srcBegin, int srcEnd, char[]dst, int dstBegin)
does not match the spec.
The JLS v1.0 (20.13.11) says that the exception will be thrown if srcBegin > srcEnd.
The implementation does nothig in this case.

--- Here is the example (S.java) ---
public class S {
  public static void main(String ar[]) {
    StringBuffer sb=new StringBuffer("String");
    char[] arr=new char[10];
    sb.getChars(1,0,arr,0); //expecting exception
  }
}

This test should throw an exception.
