Java应懂的String、StringBuffer、Strin

String字符串常量

public final class String
    implements java.io.Serializable, Comparable<String>, CharSequence{
    // private final char value[];
    private final int count;
...
}

StringBuffer 字符串变量（线程安全）

public final class StringBuffer
    extends AbstractStringBuilder
    implements java.io.Serializable, CharSequence
{
...
    public synchronized StringBuffer append(StringBuffer sb) {
        toStringCache = null;
        super.append(sb);
        return this;
    }

    /**
     * @since 1.8
     */
    @Override
    synchronized StringBuffer append(AbstractStringBuilder asb) {
        toStringCache = null;
        super.append(asb);
        return this;
    }
...
}

StringBuilder 字符串变量（线程不安全）

public final class StringBuilder
    extends AbstractStringBuilder
    implements java.io.Serializable, CharSequence
{
...
 public StringBuilder append(StringBuffer sb) {
        super.append(sb);
        return this;
    }

    @Override
    public StringBuilder append(CharSequence s) {
        super.append(s);
        return this;
    }
...
}

abstract class AbstractStringBuilder implements Appendable, CharSequence {
...
    /**
     * The value is used for character storage.
     */
    char[] value;

    /**
     * The count is the number of characters used.
     */
    int count;
...

因为后两者继承AbstractStringBuilder ，所以其可变，而string 的count 是final的，所以是不可变的。
关于线程安全，我们可以看到Stringbuffer 的方法都用synchronized 同步方法，这样保证线程安全，而Stringbuilder 则没有
