关于你对…

那么什么时候应该使用默认方法的接口，什么时候应该使用抽象类?抽象类在这种情况下仍然有用吗?

Java文档提供了完美的答案。

抽象类与接口的比较:

Abstract classes are similar to interfaces. You cannot instantiate them, and they may contain a mix of methods declared with or without an implementation. However, with abstract classes, you can declare fields that are not static and final, and define public, protected, and private concrete methods. With interfaces, all fields are automatically public, static, and final, and all methods that you declare or define (as default methods) are public. In addition, you can extend only one class, whether or not it is abstract, whereas you can implement any number of interfaces.

它们各自的用例已经在下面的SE帖子中解释了:

接口和抽象类的区别是什么?

抽象类在这种情况下仍然有用吗?

是的。它们仍然有用。它们可以包含非静态的、非最终的方法和属性(受保护，除了公共之外还有私有)，这即使是Java-8接口也不可能实现。

本文将对此进行描述。想想forEach of Collections。

List<?> list = …
list.forEach(…);

The forEach isn’t declared by java.util.List nor the java.util.Collection interface yet. One obvious solution would be to just add the new method to the existing interface and provide the implementation where required in the JDK. However, once published, it is impossible to add methods to an interface without breaking the existing implementation. The benefit that default methods bring is that now it’s possible to add a new default method to the interface and it doesn’t break the implementations.

每当我们在抽象类和接口之间做出选择时，我们总是(几乎)选择默认方法(也称为防御器或虚拟扩展)。

Default methods have put an end to classic pattern of interface and a companion class that implements most or all of the methods in that interface. An example is Collection and AbstractCollection. Now we should implement the methods in the interface itself to provide default functionality. The classes which implement the interface has choice to override the methods or inherit the default implementation. Another important use of default methods is interface evolution. Suppose I had a class Ball as: public class Ball implements Collection { ... }

现在在Java 8中引入了一个新特性流。我们可以通过使用添加到接口的stream方法来获取流。如果stream不是默认方法，那么Collection接口的所有实现都将中断，因为它们不会实现这个新方法。向接口添加非默认方法与源不兼容。

但是假设我们不重新编译这个类，而是使用一个包含这个类Ball的旧jar文件。如果没有这个缺失的方法，类将很好地加载，可以创建实例，似乎一切都在正常工作。但是如果程序在Ball实例上调用stream方法，我们将得到AbstractMethodError。因此，使方法默认解决了这两个问题。

Java 9甚至在接口中提供了私有方法，可以用来封装提供默认实现的接口方法中使用的公共代码逻辑。

虽然这是一个老问题，但让我也谈谈我的看法。

abstract class: Inside abstract class we can declare instance variables, which are required to the child class Interface: Inside interface every variables is always public static and final we cannot declare instance variables abstract class: Abstract class can talk about state of object Interface: Interface can never talk about state of object abstract class: Inside Abstract class we can declare constructors Interface: Inside interface we cannot declare constructors as purpose of constructors is to initialize instance variables. So what is the need of constructor there if we cannot have instance variables in interfaces. abstract class: Inside abstract class we can declare instance and static blocks Interface: Interfaces cannot have instance and static blocks. abstract class: Abstract class cannot refer lambda expression Interfaces: Interfaces with single abstract method can refer lambda expression abstract class: Inside abstract class we can override OBJECT CLASS methods Interfaces: We cannot override OBJECT CLASS methods inside interfaces.

最后，我要指出:

Default method concepts/static method concepts in interface came just to save implementation classes but not to provide meaningful useful implementation. Default methods/static methods are kind of dummy implementation, "if you want you can use them or you can override them (in case of default methods) in implementation class" Thus saving us from implementing new methods in implementation classes whenever new methods in interfaces are added. Therefore interfaces can never be equal to abstract classes.

这两个是完全不同的:

默认方法是在不改变现有类状态的情况下向其添加外部功能。

抽象类是一种普通的继承类型，它们是用于扩展的普通类。

请首先考虑开/闭原则。接口中的默认方法确实违反了它。这是Java中的一个不好的特性。它助长了糟糕的设计、糟糕的架构和低软件质量。我建议完全避免使用默认方法。

问自己几个问题: 为什么不能把方法放到抽象类中?那么您是否需要多个抽象类呢?然后想想你的类负责什么。您确定要放入单个类中的所有方法都实现了相同的目的吗?可能你会区分几个目的，然后将你的类分成几个类，每个目的有自己的类。
