Case 1:
String str = "Good";
str = str + " Morning";
In the above code you create 3 String
Objects.
- "Good" it goes into the String Pool.
- " Morning" it goes into the String Pool as well.
- "Good Morning" created by concatenating "Good" and " Morning". This guy goes on the Heap.
Note: Strings are always immutable. There is no, such thing as a mutable String. str
is just a reference which eventually points to "Good Morning". You are actually, not working on 1
object. you have 3
distinct String
Objects.
Case 2:
StringBuffer str = new StringBuffer("Good");
str.append(" Morning");
StringBuffer
contains an array of characters. It is not same as a String
.
The above code adds characters to the existing array. Effectively, StringBuffer
is mutable, its String
representation isn't.
