对于常量，Enum是一个更好的选择。这里有一个例子

公共类myClass {

public enum myEnum {
    Option1("String1", 2), 
    Option2("String2", 2) 
    ;
    String str;
            int i;

            myEnum(String str1, int i1) { this.str = str1 ; this.i1 = i }


}

仅仅为了保存常量而使用接口是一种糟糕的做法(Josh Bloch将其命名为常量接口模式)。以下是乔希的建议:

如果常数与 现有的类或接口 是否应该将它们添加到类中 接口。例如，所有的 盒装的数字基元类， 如Integer和Double，导出 MIN_VALUE和MAX_VALUE常量。如果 这些常数最好看成 枚举类型的成员 应该用enum导出它们吗 类型。否则，您应该导出 带有不可实例化对象的常量 实用程序类。

例子:

// Constant utility class
package com.effectivejava.science;
public class PhysicalConstants {
    private PhysicalConstants() { }  // Prevents instantiation

    public static final double AVOGADROS_NUMBER   = 6.02214199e23;
    public static final double BOLTZMANN_CONSTANT = 1.3806503e-23;
    public static final double ELECTRON_MASS      = 9.10938188e-31;
}

关于命名约定:

按照惯例，这些字段有名称 由大写字母组成的 用下划线分隔的单词。它是 重要的是，这些字段包含 要么是原始值，要么是引用 到不可变对象。

我强烈建议不要只使用一个常量类。这在当时看起来是一个好主意，但是当开发人员拒绝记录常量，并且类增长到包含500个以上彼此完全不相关的常量(与应用程序的完全不同方面相关)时，通常会导致常量文件完全不可读。而不是:

If you have access to Java 5+, use enums to define your specific constants for an application area. All parts of the application area should refer to enums, not constant values, for these constants. You may declare an enum similar to how you declare a class. Enums are perhaps the most (and, arguably, only) useful feature of Java 5+. If you have constants that are only valid to a particular class or one of its subclasses, declare them as either protected or public and place them on the top class in the hierarchy. This way, the subclasses can access these constant values (and if other classes access them via public, the constants aren't only valid to a particular class...which means that the external classes using this constant may be too tightly coupled to the class containing the constant) If you have an interface with behavior defined, but returned values or argument values should be particular, it is perfectly acceptible to define constants on that interface so that other implementors will have access to them. However, avoid creating an interface just to hold constants: it can become just as bad as a class created just to hold constants.

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
