Java8中的StringJoiner使用教程

一、背景

在用java开发中常常会使用StringBuilder/ StringBuffer 来拼接字符串，但是在java8及其以上提供了拼接神器：StringJoiner。

二、教程

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.StringJoiner;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;

public class StringJoinerApplication {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        /** 元素之间用逗号分隔拼接字符串 */
        StringJoiner stringJoiner0 = new StringJoiner(",");
        stringJoiner0.add("hello");
        stringJoiner0.add("world");
        stringJoiner0.add("tang");
        System.out.println(stringJoiner0.toString());

        /** 前后缀拼接: 以中括号为前后缀，元素之间用逗号分隔 */
        StringJoiner stringJoiner1 = new StringJoiner(",", "[", "]");
        stringJoiner1.add("hello");
        stringJoiner1.add("world");
        stringJoiner1.add("tang");
        System.out.println(stringJoiner1.toString());

        /** 使用Collectors.joining */
        List<Integer> numbers = Arrays.asList(1, 2, 3, 4);
        String commaSeparatedNumbers = numbers.stream()
                .map(i -> i.toString())
                .collect(Collectors.joining(", ","[","]"));
        System.out.println(commaSeparatedNumbers);
    }
}

     * the suffix each time.
     */

     * By default, the string consisting of prefix+suffix, returned by
     * toString(), or properties of value, when no elements have yet been added,
     * i.e. when it is empty.  This may be overridden by the user to be some
     * other value including the empty String.
