what What is the formula for charging a capacitor with constant current?

I read that the formula for calculating the time for a capacitor to charge with constant voltage is 5tau=55·τ = 5·(R*CR·C) which is derived from the natural logarithm.

inIn another book iI read that if you charged a capacitor with a constant current, the voltage would increase linear with time. Is this true, and if it is, what is the formula used for calculating this? wouldWould a complete voltage charge be possible inwith a constant current?
