聊聊java String的intern

本文主要研究一下java String的intern

String.intern()

java.base/java/lang/String.java

public final class String
    implements java.io.Serializable, Comparable<String>, CharSequence,
               Constable, ConstantDesc {

    //......

    /**
     * Returns a canonical representation for the string object.
     * <p>
     * A pool of strings, initially empty, is maintained privately by the
     * class {@code String}.
     * <p>
     * When the intern method is invoked, if the pool already contains a
     * string equal to this {@code String} object as determined by
     * the {@link #equals(Object)} method, then the string from the pool is
     * returned. Otherwise, this {@code String} object is added to the
     * pool and a reference to this {@code String} object is returned.
     * <p>
     * It follows that for any two strings {@code s} and {@code t},
     * {@code s.intern() == t.intern()} is {@code true}
     * if and only if {@code s.equals(t)} is {@code true}.
     * <p>
     * All literal strings and string-valued constant expressions are
     * interned. String literals are defined in section 3.10.5 of the
     * <cite>The Java&trade; Language Specification</cite>.
     *
     * @return  a string that has the same contents as this string, but is
     *          guaranteed to be from a pool of unique strings.
     * @jls 3.10.5 String Literals
     */
    public native String intern();

    //......           

}               
複製程式碼

當呼叫intern方法時，如果常量池已經包含一個equals此String物件的字串，則返回池中的字串
當呼叫intern方法時，如果常量池沒有一個equals此String物件的字串，將此String物件新增到池中，並返回此String物件的引用(即intern方法返回指向heap中的此String物件引用)
所有literal strings及string-valued constant expressions都是interned的

例項

基於jdk12

StringExistInPoolBeforeIntern

public class StringExistInPoolBeforeIntern {

    public static void main(String[] args){
        String stringObject = new String("tomcat");
        //NOTE 在intern之前，string table已經有了tomcat，因而intern返回tomcat，不會指向stringObject
        stringObject.intern();
        String stringLiteral = "tomcat";
        System.out.println(stringObject == stringLiteral); //false
    }
}
複製程式碼

tomcat這個literal string是interned過的，常量池沒有tomcat，因而新增到常量池，常量池有個tomcat；另外由於stringObject是new的，所以heap中也有一個tomcat，而此時它指向heap中的tomcat
stringObject.intern()返回的是heap中常量池的tomcat；stringLiteral是tomcat這個literal string，由於常量池已經有該值，因而stringLiteral指向的是heap中常量池的tomcat
此時stringObject指向的是heap中的tomcat，而stringLiteral是heap中常量池的tomcat，因而二者不等，返回false

StringNotExistInPoolBeforeIntern

public class StringNotExistInPoolBeforeIntern {

    public static void main(String[] args){
        String stringObject = new String("tom") + new String("cat");
        //NOTE 在intern之前，string table沒有tomcat，因而intern指向stringObject
        stringObject.intern();
        String stringLiteral = "tomcat";
        System.out.println(stringObject == stringLiteral); //true
    }
}
複製程式碼

tom及cat這兩個literal string是interned過的，常量池沒有tom及cat，因而新增到常量池，常量池有tom、cat；另外由於stringObject是new出來的，是tom及cat二者concat，因而heap中有一個tomcat
stringObject的intern方法執行的時候，由於常量池中沒有tomcat，因而新增到常量池，intern()返回的是指向heap中的tomcat的引用；stringLiteral是tomcat這個literal string，由於stringObject.intern()已經將tomcat新增到常量池了並指向heap中的tomcat的引用，所以stringLiteral返回的是指向heap中的tomcat的引用
由於stringLiteral返回的是指向heap中的tomcat的引用，其實就是stringObject，因而二者相等，返回true

可以看到常量池有tom、cat、tomcat

小結

當呼叫intern方法時，如果常量池已經包含一個equals此String物件的字串，則返回池中的字串
當呼叫intern方法時，如果常量池沒有一個equals此String物件的字串，將此String物件新增到池中，並返回此String物件的引用(即intern方法返回指向heap中的此String物件引用)
所有literal strings及string-valued constant expressions都是interned的
