Java 13及以上版本

Java中现在通过文本块支持多行字符串。在Java 13和14中，这个特性要求你在构建和运行项目时设置——enable-preview选项。在Java 15及以后版本中，由于文本块已成为标准特性，因此不再需要此选项。查看官方的文本块编程指南，了解更多细节。

现在，在Java 13之前，你是这样写查询的:

List<Tuple> posts = entityManager
.createNativeQuery(
    "SELECT *\n" +
    "FROM (\n" +
    "    SELECT *,\n" +
    "           dense_rank() OVER (\n" +
    "               ORDER BY \"p.created_on\", \"p.id\"\n" +
    "           ) rank\n" +
    "    FROM (\n" +
    "        SELECT p.id AS \"p.id\",\n" +
    "               p.created_on AS \"p.created_on\",\n" +
    "               p.title AS \"p.title\",\n" +
    "               pc.id as \"pc.id\",\n" +
    "               pc.created_on AS \"pc.created_on\",\n" +
    "               pc.review AS \"pc.review\",\n" +
    "               pc.post_id AS \"pc.post_id\"\n" +
    "        FROM post p\n" +
    "        LEFT JOIN post_comment pc ON p.id = pc.post_id\n" +
    "        WHERE p.title LIKE :titlePattern\n" +
    "        ORDER BY p.created_on\n" +
    "    ) p_pc\n" +
    ") p_pc_r\n" +
    "WHERE p_pc_r.rank <= :rank\n",
    Tuple.class)
.setParameter("titlePattern", "High-Performance Java Persistence %")
.setParameter("rank", 5)
.getResultList();

多亏了Java 13 Text Blocks，你可以像下面这样重写这个查询:

List<Tuple> posts = entityManager
.createNativeQuery("""
    SELECT *
    FROM (
        SELECT *,
               dense_rank() OVER (
                   ORDER BY "p.created_on", "p.id"
               ) rank
        FROM (
            SELECT p.id AS "p.id",
                   p.created_on AS "p.created_on",
                   p.title AS "p.title",
                   pc.id as "pc.id",
                   pc.created_on AS "pc.created_on",
                   pc.review AS "pc.review",
                   pc.post_id AS "pc.post_id"
            FROM post p
            LEFT JOIN post_comment pc ON p.id = pc.post_id
            WHERE p.title LIKE :titlePattern
            ORDER BY p.created_on
        ) p_pc
    ) p_pc_r
    WHERE p_pc_r.rank <= :rank
    """,
    Tuple.class)
.setParameter("titlePattern", "High-Performance Java Persistence %")
.setParameter("rank", 5)
.getResultList();

可读性强多了，对吧?

支持的想法

IntelliJ IDEA提供了将传统字符串连接块转换为新的多行字符串格式的支持:

Json, html, XML

多行String在编写JSON、HTML或XML时特别有用。

考虑下面的例子，使用String连接来构建一个JSON字符串文字:

entityManager.persist(
    new Book()
    .setId(1L)
    .setIsbn("978-9730228236")
    .setProperties(
        "{" +
        "   \"title\": \"High-Performance Java Persistence\"," +
        "   \"author\": \"Vlad Mihalcea\"," +
        "   \"publisher\": \"Amazon\"," +
        "   \"price\": 44.99," +
        "   \"reviews\": [" +
        "       {" +
        "           \"reviewer\": \"Cristiano\", " +
        "           \"review\": \"Excellent book to understand Java Persistence\", " +
        "           \"date\": \"2017-11-14\", " +
        "           \"rating\": 5" +
        "       }," +
        "       {" +
        "           \"reviewer\": \"T.W\", " +
        "           \"review\": \"The best JPA ORM book out there\", " +
        "           \"date\": \"2019-01-27\", " +
        "           \"rating\": 5" +
        "       }," +
        "       {" +
        "           \"reviewer\": \"Shaikh\", " +
        "           \"review\": \"The most informative book\", " +
        "           \"date\": \"2016-12-24\", " +
        "           \"rating\": 4" +
        "       }" +
        "   ]" +
        "}"
    )
);

由于转义字符和大量的双引号和加号，您几乎无法阅读JSON。

使用Java文本块，JSON对象可以这样写:

entityManager.persist(
    new Book()
    .setId(1L)
    .setIsbn("978-9730228236")
    .setProperties("""
        {
           "title": "High-Performance Java Persistence",
           "author": "Vlad Mihalcea",
           "publisher": "Amazon",
           "price": 44.99,
           "reviews": [
               {
                   "reviewer": "Cristiano",
                   "review": "Excellent book to understand Java Persistence",
                   "date": "2017-11-14",
                   "rating": 5
               },
               {
                   "reviewer": "T.W",
                   "review": "The best JPA ORM book out there",
                   "date": "2019-01-27",
                   "rating": 5
               },
               {
                   "reviewer": "Shaikh",
                   "review": "The most informative book",
                   "date": "2016-12-24",
                   "rating": 4
               }
           ]
        }
        """
    )
);

自从我在2004年使用c#以来，我一直希望在Java中有这个功能，现在我们终于有了它。

由于Java(还)不支持多行字符串，目前唯一的方法是使用前面提到的技术之一来破解它。我使用上面提到的一些技巧构建了下面的Python脚本:

import sys
import string
import os

print 'new String('
for line in sys.stdin:
    one = string.replace(line, '"', '\\"').rstrip(os.linesep)
    print '  + "' + one + ' "'
print ')'

把它放在一个名为javastringify.py的文件中，把你的字符串放在一个名为mystring.txt的文件中，然后像下面这样运行:

cat mystring.txt | python javastringify.py

然后，您可以复制输出并将其粘贴到编辑器中。

修改这需要处理任何特殊情况，但这是为我的需要。希望这能有所帮助!

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。

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
 """;

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";

String newline = System.getProperty ("line.separator");
string1 + newline + string2 + newline + string3

但是，最好的替代方法是使用String.format

String multilineString = String.format("%s\n%s\n%s\n",line1,line2,line3);
