在Java import语句中使用通配符并不坏。

在《Clean Code》中，Robert C. Martin建议使用它们来避免冗长的导入列表。

以下是建议:

J1: Avoid Long Import Lists by Using Wildcards If you use two or more classes from a package, then import the whole package with import package.*; Long lists of imports are daunting to the reader. We don’t want to clutter up the tops of our modules with 80 lines of imports. Rather we want the imports to be a concise statement about which packages we collaborate with. Specific imports are hard dependencies, whereas wildcard imports are not. If you specifically import a class, then that class must exist. But if you import a package with a wildcard, no particular classes need to exist. The import statement simply adds the package to the search path when hunting for names. So no true dependency is created by such imports, and they therefore serve to keep our modules less coupled. There are times when the long list of specific imports can be useful. For example, if you are dealing with legacy code and you want to find out what classes you need to build mocks and stubs for, you can walk down the list of specific imports to find out the true qualified names of all those classes and then put the appropriate stubs in place. However, this use for specific imports is very rare. Furthermore, most modern IDEs will allow you to convert the wildcarded imports to a list of specific imports with a single command. So even in the legacy case it’s better to import wildcards. Wildcard imports can sometimes cause name conflicts and ambiguities. Two classes with the same name, but in different packages, will need to be specifically imported, or at least specifically qualified when used. This can be a nuisance but is rare enough that using wildcard imports is still generally better than specific imports.

导入包中的所有类被认为是一种盲目的方法。这样做的一个主要原因是，它会使类名称空间变得混乱，并可能导致具有相同名称的不同包中的类之间发生冲突。

具体地填充必要的类可以避免这个问题，并清楚地显示需要哪些版本。这有利于代码的可维护性。

郑重声明: 当您添加导入时，您也在指示您的依赖项。

您可以很快看到文件的依赖关系(不包括相同名称空间的类)。

忘掉混乱的命名空间……想想那些不得不在GitHub、vi、notepad++或其他非ide文本编辑器中阅读和理解你的代码的可怜人吧。

这个人必须煞费苦心地查找每个通配符作用域中所有类和引用中来自一个通配符的每个标记……只是想搞清楚到底发生了什么。

如果你只是为编译器编写代码——而且你知道你在做什么——我相信通配符没有问题。

但是，如果其他人(包括未来的您)希望一次阅读就能快速理解某个特定的代码文件，那么显式引用会有很大帮助。

There is no runtime impact, as compiler automatically replaces the * with concrete class names. If you decompile the .class file, you would never see import ...*. C# always uses * (implicitly) as you can only using package name. You can never specify the class name at all. Java introduces the feature after c#. (Java is so tricky in many aspects but it's beyond this topic). In Intellij Idea when you do "organize imports", it automatically replaces multiple imports of the same package with *. This is a mandantory feature as you can not turn it off (though you can increase the threshold). The case listed by the accepted reply is not valid. Without * you still got the same issue. You need specify the pakcage name in your code no matter you use * or not.
