Here is a simple method I wrote just last week to do that (actually two 
overloaded ones).  It is not fancy, but it works.

    String repeatChar (int numChars) {
        return repeatChar (numChars, ' ');
    }

    String repeatChar (int numChars, char aChar) {
        char[]    charList    = new char[numChars];
        for( int i = 0; i < numChars; i++)
            charList[i]    = aChar;
        return new String(charList);
    }

hth,
