使用Properties.loadFromXML (InputStream)。不需要外部库。

比起混乱的代码(因为可维护性和设计是您所关心的)，最好不要使用长字符串。 从读取xml属性开始:

 InputStream fileIS = YourClass.class.getResourceAsStream("MultiLine.xml");
 Properties prop = new Properies();
 prop.loadFromXML(fileIS);

然后，您可以使用您的多行字符串在一个更可维护的方式…

static final String UNIQUE_MEANINGFUL_KEY = "Super Duper UNIQUE Key";
prop.getProperty(UNIQUE_MEANINGFUL_KEY) // "\n    MEGA\n   LONG\n..."

MultiLine.xml`位于同一个文件夹YourClass:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE properties SYSTEM "http://java.sun.com/dtd/properties.dtd">

<properties>
    <entry key="Super Duper UNIQUE Key">
       MEGA
       LONG
       MULTILINE
    </entry>
</properties>

注:你可以使用<![CDATA[”…"]]>为类似xml的字符串。

注意:这个答案适用于Java 14及以上版本。

Java 15引入了文本块(多行文字)。详情请看这个答案。

听起来像是要做一个多行文字，这在Java中是不存在的。

你最好的选择是用+ d组合的字符串。人们提到的一些其他选项(StringBuilder, String。format, String.join)只有当你从一个字符串数组开始时才更可取。

考虑一下:

String s = "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,\n"
         + "it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness,\n"
         + "it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity,\n"
         + "it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness,\n"
         + "it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair,\n"
         + "we had everything before us, we had nothing before us";

与StringBuilder:

String s = new StringBuilder()
           .append("It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,\n")
           .append("it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness,\n")
           .append("it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity,\n")
           .append("it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness,\n")
           .append("it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair,\n")
           .append("we had everything before us, we had nothing before us")
           .toString();

与String.format ():

String s = String.format("%s\n%s\n%s\n%s\n%s\n%s"
         , "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,"
         , "it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness,"
         , "it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity,"
         , "it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness,"
         , "it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair,"
         , "we had everything before us, we had nothing before us"
);

相对于Java8 String.join():

String s = String.join("\n"
         , "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,"
         , "it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness,"
         , "it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity,"
         , "it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness,"
         , "it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair,"
         , "we had everything before us, we had nothing before us"
);

如果您想在特定的系统中使用换行符，您要么需要使用system . lineseparator()，要么可以在String.format中使用%n。

另一种选择是将资源放在文本文件中，只读取该文件的内容。对于非常大的字符串，这将是可取的，以避免不必要地膨胀您的类文件。

在Eclipse中，如果你打开选项“在粘贴到字符串文字时转义文本”(在Preferences > Java > Editor > Typing中)并在引号中粘贴一个多行字符串，它将自动为你的所有行添加“和\n”+。

String str = "paste your text here";

你可以在一个单独的方法中连接你的追加:

public static String multilineString(String... lines){
   StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
   for(String s : lines){
     sb.append(s);
     sb.append ('\n');
   }
   return sb.toString();
}

无论哪种方式，都更喜欢StringBuilder而不是加号符号。

    import org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils;

    String multiline = StringUtils.join(new String[] {
        "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times ", 
        "it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness",
        "it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity",
        "it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness",
        "it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair",
        "we had everything before us, we had nothing before us",
        }, "\n");

JEP 378: Text Blocks涵盖了此功能，并且包含在JDK 15中。它最初出现在JDK 13中的JEP 355: Text Blocks(预览)和JDK 14中的JEP 368: Text Blocks(第二预览)，可以在这些版本中通过——enable-preview javac选项启用。

语法允许这样写:

String s = """
           text
           text
           text
           """;

在此之前，在JDK 12中，JEP 326: Raw String Literals旨在实现类似的功能，但最终被撤回:

请注意:这原本是JDK 12中的预览语言功能，但它已被撤回，并没有出现在JDK 12中。它在JDK 13中被文本块(JEP 355)所取代。
