发现这个问题寻找连接任意数量的列表，不介意外部库。所以，也许它会帮助其他人:

com.google.common.collect.Iterables#concat()

如果您想将相同的逻辑应用于一个for()中的多个不同的集合，则此方法非常有用。

您的要求之一是保存原始的清单。如果您创建一个新列表并使用addAll()，那么您实际上是将列表中对象的引用数量增加了一倍。如果您的列表非常大，这可能会导致内存问题。

如果不需要修改连接的结果，可以使用自定义列表实现来避免这种情况。自定义实现类不止一行，显然…但是使用它是简短而甜蜜的。

CompositeUnmodifiableList.java:

public class CompositeUnmodifiableList<E> extends AbstractList<E> {

    private final List<? extends E> list1;
    private final List<? extends E> list2;

    public CompositeUnmodifiableList(List<? extends E> list1, List<? extends E> list2) {
        this.list1 = list1;
        this.list2 = list2;
    }
    
    @Override
    public E get(int index) {
        if (index < list1.size()) {
            return list1.get(index);
        }
        return list2.get(index-list1.size());
    }

    @Override
    public int size() {
        return list1.size() + list2.size();
    }
}

用法:

List<String> newList = new CompositeUnmodifiableList<String>(listOne,listTwo);

不是更简单，但没有调整开销:

List<String> newList = new ArrayList<>(listOne.size() + listTwo.size());
newList.addAll(listOne);
newList.addAll(listTwo);

可能并不简单，但有趣而丑陋:

List<String> newList = new ArrayList<String>() { { addAll(listOne); addAll(listTwo); } };

不要在产品代码中使用它……；）
