I think, javadoc should indicate StringIndexOutOfBoundsException here:

     /**
      * @throws IndexOutOfBoundsException {@inheritDoc}
      * @see        #length()
      */
     public synchronized char charAt(int index) {
         if ((index < 0) || (index >= count))
             throw new StringIndexOutOfBoundsException(index);
         return value[index];
     }


Or am I not enough informed about {@inheritDoc} ?
