String对象

Strings are constant; their values cannot be changed after they are created. String buffers support mutable strings. Because String objects are immutable they can be shared. For example:
Strings是常量；一旦创建，它的值就不可被改变。因为String是不可变对象，所以能被共享。

 String str = "abc";

is equivalent to:
相当于：

 char data[] = {'a', 'b', 'c'}; String str = new String(data);

解释：
String s = "ABC";
s.toLowerCase();
toLowerCase()方法不会改变s中包含的数据“ABC”。而是创建一个新的String对象并将其初始化为“abc”，然后返回这个新对象的引用。
