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。

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。
其他回答
我知道这是一个老问题，但是对于感兴趣的开发人员来说，多行文字将在#Java12中
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/amber-dev/2018-July/003254.html
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");
加号被转换为StringBuilder。除非两个字符串都是常量，以便编译器可以在编译时将它们组合在一起。至少，Sun的编译器是这样的，我怀疑大多数(如果不是所有)其他编译器也会这样做。
So:
String a="Hello";
String b="Goodbye";
String c=a+b;
通常生成完全相同的代码:
String a="Hello";
String b="Goodbye":
StringBuilder temp=new StringBuilder();
temp.append(a).append(b);
String c=temp.toString();
另一方面:
String c="Hello"+"Goodbye";
等于:
String c="HelloGoodbye";
也就是说，为了可读性，在多行中使用加号将字符串字面量分开并不会受到惩罚。
这个问题有两个答案:
In you want to stick to pure Java, with Java 14 being released in March 2020, you can leverage the JEP 368 - Text Blocks, in Second Preview mode. Actually the feature is in preview mode in other releases (at least 13 has it). I created and example set here. While this feature is useful, it can be easily abused. Remember that Java requires compilation - having large character arrays in your code can be an easy way to shoot yourself in the leg (if you want a quick change, you will need recompilation - that toolset might not be available to the guy operating your application).
根据我的经验，建议在配置文件中保留大字符串(通常是应用程序操作员可以/应该在运行时更改的字符串)。
总结:负责地使用文本块:)。
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
""";
