Apache的commons-lang3包StringUtils.isEmpty、isBlank方法区别

经常使用commons-lang3包中的StringUtils判断字符串是否为空，isEmpty、isBlank都在使用，但在使用上还有有点小小的区别的。

isEmpty源码

// Empty checks
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------
/**
 * <p>Checks if a CharSequence is empty ("") or null.</p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * StringUtils.isEmpty(null)      = true
 * StringUtils.isEmpty("")        = true
 * StringUtils.isEmpty(" ")       = false
 * StringUtils.isEmpty("bob")     = false
 * StringUtils.isEmpty("  bob  ") = false
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>NOTE: This method changed in Lang version 2.0.
 * It no longer trims the CharSequence.
 * That functionality is available in isBlank().</p>
 *
 * @param cs  the CharSequence to check, may be null
 * @return {@code true} if the CharSequence is empty or null
 * @since 3.0 Changed signature from isEmpty(String) to isEmpty(CharSequence)
 */
public static boolean isEmpty(final CharSequence cs) {
    return cs == null || cs.length() == 0;
}

isBlank源码

/**
 * <p>Checks if a CharSequence is empty (""), null or whitespace only.</p>
 *
 * <p>Whitespace is defined by {@link Character#isWhitespace(char)}.</p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * StringUtils.isBlank(null)      = true
 * StringUtils.isBlank("")        = true
 * StringUtils.isBlank(" ")       = true
 * StringUtils.isBlank("bob")     = false
 * StringUtils.isBlank("  bob  ") = false
 * </pre>
 *
 * @param cs  the CharSequence to check, may be null
 * @return {@code true} if the CharSequence is null, empty or whitespace only
 * @since 2.0
 * @since 3.0 Changed signature from isBlank(String) to isBlank(CharSequence)
 */
public static boolean isBlank(final CharSequence cs) {
    int strLen;
    if (cs == null || (strLen = cs.length()) == 0) {
        return true;
    }
    for (int i = 0; i < strLen; i++) {
        if (!Character.isWhitespace(cs.charAt(i))) {
            return false;
        }
    }
    return true;
}

区别

for (int i = 0; i < strLen; i++) {
    if (!Character.isWhitespace(cs.charAt(i))) {
        return false;
    }
}

isBlank多了一个循环，循环入参中的字符串，若有一个字符不是空，入参字符串不为空，当入参字符串中每个字符都是空格时，isBlank也返回true。

即，针对同一个字符串” “（中间是英文空格），两个方法返回值不一样，isEmpty 返回 false，而 isBlank 则返回 true.
