只是要避免使用接口:

public interface MyConstants {
    String CONSTANT_ONE = "foo";
}

public class NeddsConstant implements MyConstants {

}

这很诱人，但违反了封装，并且模糊了类定义的区别。

有什么不同

1.

public interface MyGlobalConstants {
    public static final int TIMEOUT_IN_SECS = 25;
}

2.

public class MyGlobalConstants {
    private MyGlobalConstants () {} // Prevents instantiation
    public static final int TIMEOUT_IN_SECS = 25;
}

和使用 MyGlobalConstants。TIMEOUT_IN_SECS，我们需要这个常量。我认为两者是一样的。

静态final是我的偏好，我只使用enum如果项目确实是可枚举的。

那么枚举呢?

有一定的观点来回答这个问题。首先，java中的常量通常被声明为public、static和final。原因如下:

public, so that they are accessible from everywhere
static, so that they can be accessed without any instance. Since they are constants it
  makes little sense to duplicate them for every object.
final, since they should not be allowed to change

我永远不会为CONSTANTS访问器/对象使用接口，因为接口通常是需要实现的。这看起来是不是很有趣:

String myConstant = IMyInterface.CONSTANTX;

相反，我会在一些不同的方法中进行选择，基于一些小的权衡，所以这取决于你需要什么:

1.  Use a regular enum with a default/private constructor. Most people would define 
     constants this way, IMHO.
  - drawback: cannot effectively Javadoc each constant member
  - advantage: var members are implicitly public, static, and final
  - advantage: type-safe
  - provides "a limited constructor" in a special way that only takes args which match
     predefined 'public static final' keys, thus limiting what you can pass to the
     constructor

2.  Use a altered enum WITHOUT a constructor, having all variables defined with 
     prefixed 'public static final' .
  - looks funny just having a floating semi-colon in the code
  - advantage: you can JavaDoc each variable with an explanation
  - drawback: you still have to put explicit 'public static final' before each variable
  - drawback: not type-safe
  - no 'limited constructor'

3.  Use a Class with a private constructor:
  - advantage: you can JavaDoc each variable with an explanation
  - drawback: you have to put explicit 'public static final' before each variable
  - you have the option of having a constructor to create an instance
     of the class if you want to provide additional functions related
     to your constants 
     (or just keep the constructor private)
  - drawback: not type-safe

4. Using interface:
  - advantage: you can JavaDoc each variable with an explanation
  - advantage: var members are implicitly 'public static final'
  - you are able to define default interface methods if you want to provide additional
     functions related to your constants (only if you implement the interface)
  - drawback: not type-safe

根据上面的评论，我认为这是一个很好的方法，将老式的全局常量类(具有公共静态final变量)更改为类似枚举的等价物，如下所示:

public class Constants {

    private Constants() {
        throw new AssertionError();
    }

    public interface ConstantType {}

    public enum StringConstant implements ConstantType {
        DB_HOST("localhost");
        // other String constants come here

        private String value;
        private StringConstant(String value) {
            this.value = value;
        }
        public String value() {
            return value;
        }
    }

    public enum IntConstant implements ConstantType {
        DB_PORT(3128), 
        MAX_PAGE_SIZE(100);
        // other int constants come here

        private int value;
        private IntConstant(int value) {
            this.value = value;
        }
        public int value() {
            return value;
        }
    }

    public enum SimpleConstant implements ConstantType {
        STATE_INIT,
        STATE_START,
        STATE_END;
    }

}

这样我就可以把它们引用为:

Constants.StringConstant.DB_HOST
