注释@NotEmpty、@NotBlank、@NotNull的区别

例子：

String str = null; //都不能为null
@NotNull: false
@NotEmpty: false
@NotBlank: false
 
String str = "";
@NotNull: true    //可以为空 没有长度限制
@NotEmpty: false
@NotBlank: false
 
String str = " ";
@NotNull: true
@NotEmpty: true  //长度为1 不除去空格
@NotBlank: false //用trim()后 长度为0
 
String str = "Hello!";
@NotNull: true
@NotEmpty: true
@NotBlank: true

1、@NotEmpty

/**
 * The annotated element must not be {@code null} nor empty. Supported types are:
 * <ul>
 * <li>{@code CharSequence} (length of character sequence is evaluated)</li>
 * <li>{@code Collection} (collection size is evaluated)</li>
 * <li>{@code Map} (map size is evaluated)</li>
 * <li>Array (array length is evaluated)</li>
 * </ul>

@NotEmpty注解的String、Collection、Map、数组不能为null或者长度为0(纯空格的String符合规则)

2、@NotBlank

/**
 * The annotated element must not be {@code null} and must contain at least one
 * non-whitespace character. Accepts {@code CharSequence}.
 *
 * @author Hardy Ferentschik
 * @since 2.0
 *
 * @see Character#isWhitespace(char)
 */

@NotBlank注释的String不能为null或空 (尾部空格被忽略，纯空格的String也是不符合规则。即trim()之后，要length>0才符合)

3、@NotNull

/**
 * The annotated element must not be {@code null}.
 * Accepts any type.
 *

@NotNull 注释的元素不能为null，但可以为empty，没有长度的约束。接受任何类型
