这篇旧文章的另一个解决方案(对那些可能有帮助的人来说):

public class Version implements Comparable<Version> {

    private String version;

    public final String get() {
        return this.version;
    }

    public Version(String version) {
        if(version == null)
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("Version can not be null");
        if(!version.matches("[0-9]+(\\.[0-9]+)*"))
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("Invalid version format");
        this.version = version;
    }

    @Override public int compareTo(Version that) {
        if(that == null)
            return 1;
        String[] thisParts = this.get().split("\\.");
        String[] thatParts = that.get().split("\\.");
        int length = Math.max(thisParts.length, thatParts.length);
        for(int i = 0; i < length; i++) {
            int thisPart = i < thisParts.length ?
                Integer.parseInt(thisParts[i]) : 0;
            int thatPart = i < thatParts.length ?
                Integer.parseInt(thatParts[i]) : 0;
            if(thisPart < thatPart)
                return -1;
            if(thisPart > thatPart)
                return 1;
        }
        return 0;
    }

    @Override public boolean equals(Object that) {
        if(this == that)
            return true;
        if(that == null)
            return false;
        if(this.getClass() != that.getClass())
            return false;
        return this.compareTo((Version) that) == 0;
    }

}

Version a = new Version("1.1");
Version b = new Version("1.1.1");
a.compareTo(b) // return -1 (a<b)
a.equals(b)    // return false

Version a = new Version("2.0");
Version b = new Version("1.9.9");
a.compareTo(b) // return 1 (a>b)
a.equals(b)    // return false

Version a = new Version("1.0");
Version b = new Version("1");
a.compareTo(b) // return 0 (a=b)
a.equals(b)    // return true

Version a = new Version("1");
Version b = null;
a.compareTo(b) // return 1 (a>b)
a.equals(b)    // return false

List<Version> versions = new ArrayList<Version>();
versions.add(new Version("2"));
versions.add(new Version("1.0.5"));
versions.add(new Version("1.01.0"));
versions.add(new Version("1.00.1"));
Collections.min(versions).get() // return min version
Collections.max(versions).get() // return max version

// WARNING
Version a = new Version("2.06");
Version b = new Version("2.060");
a.equals(b)    // return false

编辑:

@daiscog:谢谢你的评论，这段代码是为Android平台开发的，由谷歌推荐，方法“匹配”检查整个字符串，不像Java使用监管模式。(Android文档- JAVA文档)

我创建了一个简单的实用程序，使用语义版本约定在Android平台上比较版本。所以它只适用于X.Y.Z (Major.Minor.Patch)格式的字符串，其中X、Y和Z是非负整数。你可以在我的GitHub上找到它。

方法version . compareversions (String v1, String v2)比较两个版本字符串。如果版本相等则返回0，如果版本v1在版本v2之前则返回1，如果版本v1在版本v2之后则返回-1，如果版本格式无效则返回-2。

想知道为什么每个人都假设版本只由整数组成-在我的情况下，它不是。

为什么要重新发明轮子(假设版本遵循Semver标准)

首先通过Maven安装https://github.com/vdurmont/semver4j

然后使用这个库

Semver sem = new Semver("1.2.3");
sem.isGreaterThan("1.2.2"); // true

使用Maven真的很简单:

import org.apache.maven.artifact.versioning.DefaultArtifactVersion;

DefaultArtifactVersion minVersion = new DefaultArtifactVersion("1.0.1");
DefaultArtifactVersion maxVersion = new DefaultArtifactVersion("1.10");

DefaultArtifactVersion version = new DefaultArtifactVersion("1.11");

if (version.compareTo(minVersion) < 0 || version.compareTo(maxVersion) > 0) {
    System.out.println("Sorry, your version is unsupported");
}

您可以从这个页面获得Maven Artifact的正确依赖项字符串:

<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-artifact</artifactId>
<version>3.0.3</version>
</dependency>

下面是一个优化的实现:

public static final Comparator<CharSequence> VERSION_ORDER = new Comparator<CharSequence>() {

  @Override
  public int compare (CharSequence lhs, CharSequence rhs) {
    int ll = lhs.length(), rl = rhs.length(), lv = 0, rv = 0, li = 0, ri = 0;
    char c;
    do {
      lv = rv = 0;
      while (--ll >= 0) {
        c = lhs.charAt(li++);
        if (c < '0' || c > '9')
          break;
        lv = lv*10 + c - '0';
      }
      while (--rl >= 0) {
        c = rhs.charAt(ri++);
        if (c < '0' || c > '9')
          break;
        rv = rv*10 + c - '0';
      }
    } while (lv == rv && (ll >= 0 || rl >= 0));
    return lv - rv;
  }

};

结果:

"0.1" - "1.0" = -1
"1.0" - "1.0" = 0
"1.0" - "1.0.0" = 0
"10" - "1.0" = 9
"3.7.6" - "3.7.11" = -5
"foobar" - "1.0" = -1

public static void main(String[] args) {

    String version1 = "1.0";
    String version2 = "1.0.0";
    String[] version1_splits = version1.split("\\.");
    String[] version2_splits = version2.split("\\.");
    int length = version1_splits.length >= version2_splits.length ? version1_splits.length : version2_splits.length;
    int i=0;
    for(;i<length;i++){
        int version1_int = getValue(version1_splits,i);
        int version2_int = getValue(version2_splits,i);
        if(version1_int > version2_int){
            System.out.println("version1 > version2");
            break;
        }
        else if(version1_int < version2_int){
            System.out.println("version2 > version1");
            break;
        }
        else{
            if(i == length-1)
            System.out.println("version1 = version2");
        }
    }
}

private static int getValue(String[] version1_splits, int i) {
    int temp;
    try{
        temp = Integer.valueOf(version1_splits[i]);
    }
    catch(IndexOutOfBoundsException e){
        temp=0;
    }

    return temp;
}
