...when such (nested) type is the result type of a method:

public static  int #(byte[],int,int) throws IOException #(File) throws IOException filer(int mode) throws IllegalArgumentException {
...
}


the sequence continues with similar pattern where '#' is finally replaced with method name. IDEs might reformat such cases like this:

public static
    int
        #(byte[],int,int) throws IOException 
            #(File) throws IOException
                filer(int mode) throws IllegalArgumentException 
{
...
}


to improve visual clearness.
