来自Perl，我肯定错过了在源代码中创建多行字符串的“here-document”方法:
$string = <<"EOF" # create a three-line string
text
text
text
EOF
在Java中，当我从头开始连接多行字符串时，我必须在每一行上使用繁琐的引号和加号。
有什么更好的选择吗?在属性文件中定义我的字符串?
编辑:有两个答案说StringBuilder.append()比加号更可取。谁能详细解释一下他们为什么这么想?在我看来，这一点也不可取。我正在寻找一种方法来解决多行字符串不是一级语言结构这一事实，这意味着我绝对不想用方法调用取代一级语言结构(字符串连接与加号)。
编辑:为了进一步澄清我的问题，我根本不关心性能。我关心的是可维护性和设计问题。

一个非常高效且与平台无关的解决方案是使用系统属性的行分隔符和StringBuilder类来构建字符串:
String separator = System.getProperty("line.separator");
String[] lines = {"Line 1", "Line 2" /*, ... */};
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder(lines[0]);
for (int i = 1; i < lines.length(); i++) {
builder.append(separator).append(lines[i]);
}
String multiLine = builder.toString();
其他回答
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";
你可以使用scala-code，它与java兼容，并且允许用""" "括起来的多行字符串:
package foobar
object SWrap {
def bar = """John said: "This is
a test
a bloody test,
my dear." and closed the door."""
}
(注意字符串内的引号)和来自java:
String s2 = foobar.SWrap.bar ();
这样是否更舒服?
另一种方法，如果你经常处理长文本，应该放在你的源代码中，可能是一个脚本，它从外部文件中获取文本，并将其包装为一个多行java- string，像这样:
sed '1s/^/String s = \"/;2,$s/^/\t+ "/;2,$s/$/"/' file > file.java
这样你就可以很容易地复制粘贴到你的源代码中。
Java 13预览:
Text Blocks Come to Java. Java 13 delivers long-awaited multiline string by Mala Gupta With text blocks, Java 13 is making it easier for you to work with multiline string literals. You no longer need to escape the special characters in string literals or use concatenation operators for values that span multiple lines. Text block is defined using three double quotes (""") as the opening and closing delimiters. The opening delimiter can be followed by zero or more white spaces and a line terminator.
例子:
String s1 = """
text
text
text
""";
我还没有看到的另一个答案是java.io.PrintWriter。
StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter();
PrintWriter writer = new PrintWriter(stringWriter);
writer.println("It was the best of times, it was the worst of times");
writer.println("it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness,");
writer.println("it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity,");
writer.println("it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness,");
writer.println("it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair,");
writer.println("we had everything before us, we had nothing before us");
String string = stringWriter.toString();
此外，java.io.BufferedWriter有一个newLine()方法的事实也未被提及。
使用这个库
https://github.com/alessio-santacroce/multiline-string-literals
可以这样写
System.out.println(newString(/*
Wow, we finally have
multiline strings in
Java! HOOO!
*/));
很好很简单，但是只适用于单元测试
