java中的实际参数,Java存储中的实际参数在哪里

If I pass a String literal to some metohd as:

String s=new String("stack");

String s2=s.concat("overflow");

where string "overflow" will be stored.

one of my friends arguing that it is created in String constant pool and I'm opposing him.

please let me know

Thanks in advance.

All String literals go in the constant pool. The End. In this case, two constants, "stack" and "overflow", go into the pool. A new String is created that holds the same value as the "stack" in the pool, and then another String is created by concatenating the "overflow" from the constant pool to it.

Excerpt from javap -c -verbose Test:

Constant pool:

#1 = Methodref #10.#19 // java/lang/Object."":()V

#2 = Class #20 // java/lang/String

#3 = String #21 // stack

#4 = Methodref #2.#22 // java/lang/String."":(Ljava/lang/String;)V

#5 = String #23 // overflow

#6 = Methodref #2.#24 // java/lang/String.concat:(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/String;
