我喜欢@Peter Lawrey的想法，我把它扩展到更远的范围:

    /**
    * Normalize string array, 
    * Appends zeros if string from the array
    * has length smaller than the maxLen.
    **/
    private String normalize(String[] split, int maxLen){
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("");
        for(String s : split) {
            for(int i = 0; i<maxLen-s.length(); i++) sb.append('0');
            sb.append(s);
        }
        return sb.toString();
    }

    /**
    * Removes trailing zeros of the form '.00.0...00'
    * (and does not remove zeros from, say, '4.1.100')
    **/
    public String removeTrailingZeros(String s){
        int i = s.length()-1;
        int k = s.length()-1;
        while(i >= 0 && (s.charAt(i) == '.' || s.charAt(i) == '0')){
          if(s.charAt(i) == '.') k = i-1;
          i--;  
        } 
        return s.substring(0,k+1);
    }

    /**
    * Compares two versions(works for alphabets too),
    * Returns 1 if v1 > v2, returns 0 if v1 == v2,
    * and returns -1 if v1 < v2.
    **/
    public int compareVersion(String v1, String v2) {

        // Uncomment below two lines if for you, say, 4.1.0 is equal to 4.1
        // v1 = removeTrailingZeros(v1);
        // v2 = removeTrailingZeros(v2);

        String[] splitv1 = v1.split("\\.");
        String[] splitv2 = v2.split("\\.");
        int maxLen = 0;
        for(String str : splitv1) maxLen = Math.max(maxLen, str.length());
        for(String str : splitv2) maxLen = Math.max(maxLen, str.length());
        int cmp = normalize(splitv1, maxLen).compareTo(normalize(splitv2, maxLen));
        return cmp > 0 ? 1 : (cmp < 0 ? -1 : 0);
    }

希望它能帮助到别人。它通过了interviewbit和leetcode中的所有测试用例(需要取消compareVersion函数中的两行注释)。

很容易测试!

对于要显示基于版本号的强制更新警报的人，我有以下想法。这可能用于比较Android当前应用版本和firebase远程配置版本之间的版本。这并不是问题的确切答案，但这肯定会对某人有所帮助。

import java.util.List;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Arrays;
public class Main
{
  static String firebaseVersion = "2.1.3"; // or 2.1
  static String appVersion = "2.1.4";
  static List<String> firebaseVersionArray;
  static List<String> appVersionArray;
  static boolean isNeedToShowAlert = false;
  public static void main (String[]args)
  {
    System.out.println ("Hello World");
    firebaseVersionArray = new ArrayList<String>(Arrays.asList(firebaseVersion.split ("\\.")));
    appVersionArray = new ArrayList<String>(Arrays.asList(appVersion.split ("\\.")));
    if(appVersionArray.size() < firebaseVersionArray.size()) {
        appVersionArray.add("0");
    }
    if(firebaseVersionArray.size() < appVersionArray.size()) {
        firebaseVersionArray.add("0");
    }
    isNeedToShowAlert = needToShowAlert(); //Returns false
    System.out.println (isNeedToShowAlert);

  }
  static boolean needToShowAlert() {
      boolean result = false;
      for(int i = 0 ; i < appVersionArray.size() ; i++) {
          if (Integer.parseInt(appVersionArray.get(i)) == Integer.parseInt(firebaseVersionArray.get(i))) {
              continue;
          } else if (Integer.parseInt(appVersionArray.get(i)) > Integer.parseInt(firebaseVersionArray.get(i))){
             result = false;
             break;
          } else if (Integer.parseInt(appVersionArray.get(i)) < Integer.parseInt(firebaseVersionArray.get(i))) {
             result = true;
             break;  
          }
      }
      return result;
  }
}

您可以通过复制粘贴来运行此代码 https://www.onlinegdb.com/online_java_compiler

最好的方法是重用现有代码， 使用Maven的ComparableVersion类

优点:

Apache许可证，版本2.0， 测试, 在多个项目中使用(复制)，如spring-security-core, jboss等 多个特性 它已经是java.lang。可比的了 只是复制粘贴一个类，没有第三方依赖

不要包含对maven-artifact的依赖项，因为那会拉动各种传递依赖项

使用Java 8 Stream替换组件中的前导零。这段代码通过了interviewbit.com上的所有测试

public int compareVersion(String A, String B) {
    List<String> strList1 = Arrays.stream(A.split("\\."))
                                           .map(s -> s.replaceAll("^0+(?!$)", ""))
                                           .collect(Collectors.toList());
    List<String> strList2 = Arrays.stream(B.split("\\."))
                                           .map(s -> s.replaceAll("^0+(?!$)", ""))
                                           .collect(Collectors.toList());
    int len1 = strList1.size();
    int len2 = strList2.size();
    int i = 0;
    while(i < len1 && i < len2){
        if (strList1.get(i).length() > strList2.get(i).length()) return 1;
        if (strList1.get(i).length() < strList2.get(i).length()) return -1;
        int result = new Long(strList1.get(i)).compareTo(new Long(strList2.get(i)));
        if (result != 0) return result;
        i++;
    }
    while (i < len1){
        if (!strList1.get(i++).equals("0")) return 1;
    }
    while (i < len2){
        if (!strList2.get(i++).equals("0")) return -1;
    }
    return 0;
}

科特林：

@kotlin.jvm.Throws(InvalidParameterException::class)
fun String.versionCompare(remoteVersion: String?): Int {
    val remote = remoteVersion?.splitToSequence(".")?.toList() ?: return 1
    val local = this.splitToSequence(".").toList()

    if(local.filter { it.toIntOrNull() != null }.size != local.size) throw InvalidParameterException("version invalid: $this")
    if(remote.filter { it.toIntOrNull() != null }.size != remote.size) throw InvalidParameterException("version invalid: $remoteVersion")

    val totalRange = 0 until kotlin.math.max(local.size, remote.size)
    for (i in totalRange) {
        if (i < remote.size && i < local.size) {
            val result = local[i].compareTo(remote[i])
            if (result != 0) return result
        } else (
            return local.size.compareTo(remote.size)
        )
    }
    return 0
}

由于本页上没有答案能很好地处理混合文本，我做了自己的版本:

import java.util.regex.Matcher;
import java.util.regex.Pattern;

class Main {
    static double parseVersion(String v) {
        if (v.isEmpty()) {
            return 0;
        }
        Pattern p = Pattern.compile("^(\\D*)(\\d*)(\\D*)$");
        Matcher m = p.matcher(v);
        m.find();
        if (m.group(2).isEmpty()) {
            // v1.0.0.[preview]
            return -1;
        }
        double i = Integer.parseInt(m.group(2));
        if (!m.group(3).isEmpty()) {
            // v1.0.[0b]
            i -= 0.1;
        }
        return i;
    }

    public static int versionCompare(String str1, String str2) {
        String[] v1 = str1.split("\\.");
        String[] v2 = str2.split("\\.");
        int i = 0;
        for (; i < v1.length && i < v2.length; i++) {
            double iv1 = parseVersion(v1[i]);
            double iv2 = parseVersion(v2[i]);

            if (iv1 != iv2) {
                return iv1 - iv2 < 0 ? -1 : 1;
            }
        }
        if (i < v1.length) {
            // "1.0.1", "1.0"
            double iv1 = parseVersion(v1[i]);
            return iv1 < 0 ? -1 : (int) Math.ceil(iv1);
        }
        if (i < v2.length) {
            double iv2 = parseVersion(v2[i]);
            return -iv2 < 0 ? -1 : (int) Math.ceil(iv2);
        }
        return 0;
    }


    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("versionCompare(v1.0.0, 1.0.0)");
        System.out.println(versionCompare("v1.0.0", "1.0.0")); // 0

        System.out.println("versionCompare(v1.0.0b, 1.0.0)");
        System.out.println(versionCompare("v1.0.0b", "1.0.0")); // -1

        System.out.println("versionCompare(v1.0.0.preview, 1.0.0)");
        System.out.println(versionCompare("v1.0.0.preview", "1.0.0")); // -1

        System.out.println("versionCompare(v1.0, 1.0.0)");
        System.out.println(versionCompare("v1.0", "1.0.0")); // 0

        System.out.println("versionCompare(ver1.0, 1.0.1)");
        System.out.println(versionCompare("ver1.0", "1.0.1")); // -1
    }
}

不过，在需要比较“alpha”和“beta”的情况下，它仍然不够。
