| Changes to String in java (from 1.7.0_06) | 2020-06-06 09:00:00 |

Before 1.7.0_06, String has 4 non static field:
- char[] value
- int[] offset
- int count
- int hash
Subing.substring create a String by sharing the original String's internal char[] value and setting offset. This saves memory and makes String.substring run in a constant time(O(1)).
Meanwhile, this feature may cause memory leak1 .
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk6/jdk6/jdk/file/8deef18bb749/src/share/classes/java/lang/String.java
public final class String
implements java.io.Serializable, Comparable<String>, CharSequence
{
/** The value is used for character storage. */
private final char value[];
/** The offset is the first index of the storage that is used. */
private final int offset;
/** The count is the number of characters in the String. */
private final int count;
/** Cache the hash code for the string */
private int hash; // Default to 0
// ...
// Package private constructor which shares value array for speed.
String(int offset, int count, char value[]) {
this.value = value;
this.offset = offset;
this.count = count;
}
// ...
/**
* Returns a new string that is a substring of this string. The
* substring begins at the specified <code>beginIndex</code> and
* extends to the character at index <code>endIndex - 1</code>.
* Thus the length of the substring is <code>endIndex-beginIndex</code>.
* <p>
* Examples:
* <blockquote><pre>
* "hamburger".substring(4, 8) returns "urge"
* "smiles".substring(1, 5) returns "mile"
* </pre></blockquote>
*
* @param beginIndex the beginning index, inclusive.
* @param endIndex the ending index, exclusive.
* @return the specified substring.
* @exception IndexOutOfBoundsException if the
* <code>beginIndex</code> is negative, or
* <code>endIndex</code> is larger than the length of
* this <code>String</code> object, or
* <code>beginIndex</code> is larger than
* <code>endIndex</code>.
*/
public String substring(int beginIndex, int endIndex) {
if (beginIndex < 0) {
throw new StringIndexOutOfBoundsException(beginIndex);
}
if (endIndex > count) {
throw new StringIndexOutOfBoundsException(endIndex);
}
if (beginIndex > endIndex) {
throw new StringIndexOutOfBoundsException(endIndex - beginIndex);
}
return ((beginIndex == 0) && (endIndex == count)) ? this :
new String(offset + beginIndex, endIndex - beginIndex, value);
}
// ...
}
Since Java 1.7.0_06, offset and count fields were removed. String.substring makes new copies of value, which means we can forget about the memory leak but the runtime becomes O(N) at the same time.
