StringBuilder和StringBuffer的区别

1.线程安全性

 StringBuffer:线程安全,StringBuffer所有公开方法都是有synchronized 关键字修饰的;
 StringBuilder:线程不安全,StringBuilder没有synchronized 关键字修饰   

StringBuffer的append方法:

     @Override
    public synchronized StringBuffer append(CharSequence s, int start, int end)
    {
        toStringCache = null;
        super.append(s, start, end);
        return this;
    }

    @Override
    public synchronized StringBuffer append(char[] str) {
        toStringCache = null;
        super.append(str);
        return this;
    }

StringBuilder的append方法:

    public StringBuilder append(StringBuffer sb) {
        super.append(sb);
        return this;
    }

    @Override
    public StringBuilder append(CharSequence s) {
        super.append(s);
        return this;
    }

    /**
     * @throws     IndexOutOfBoundsException {@inheritDoc}
     */
    @Override
    public StringBuilder append(CharSequence s, int start, int end) {
        super.append(s, start, end);
        return this;
    }

    @Override
    public StringBuilder append(char[] str) {
        super.append(str);
        return this;
    }

2.toString方法区别

StringBuffer的toString方法:

   @Override
    public synchronized String toString() {
        if (toStringCache == null) {
            toStringCache = Arrays.copyOfRange(value, 0, count);
        }
        return new String(toStringCache, true);
    }

StringBuilder的方法:

 @Override
    public String toString() {
        // Create a copy, don't share the array
        return new String(value, 0, count);
    }

1.StringBuffer的toString方法使用缓存区的toStringCache 的值来构造一个字符串
2.StringBuilder的toString方法是通过复制字符数组来构造一个字符串

3.性能

StringBuilder 的性能要远大于 StringBuffer,因为StringBuffer的所有公开方法都是同步的,线程更安全,但是会导致性能大大降低,StringBuilder的所有方法都不是同步的,所以StringBuilder相比较StringBuffer性能更好
