- The <code>String</code> class represents character strings.
- JAVA程序中的所有的string字符，比如"abc"，是作为String类的实例实现的。
- Strings 是常量;其值在创建后不能在有改变。String buffers支持不可变字符串。
- 因为String 对象是不可变的，因此他们可以被共享。比如:
String str = "abc";
- 相当于
char data[] = {'a', 'b', 'c'};
String str = new String(data);
- 下面是更多的使用用例：
System.out.println("abc");
String cde = "cde";
System.out.println("abc" + cde);
String c = "abc".substring(2,3);
String d = cde.substring(1, 2);
-
String类包括检验单个字符的序列的方法，用于字符串比较、字符串搜索、提取子字符串，以及将字符串转化为大写或小写的字符串副本。
-
Java语言为字符串连接操作符（+）提供了特殊支持，以及支持将其他对象转化为字符串。字符串连接是由StringBuffer类和它的append方法实现的。
-
toString()方法：由Object定义，被Java中的所有类继承。
-
Java语言规范
-
除非传入构造器的参数为null，或者该类中的方法会导致NullPointerException的抛出。
-
索引值表示代码单元，补充字符在字符串中占用了两个位置。String类除了处理Unicode代码单元的方法外，也为处理Unicode守则要点提供了方法
