JDK8中CharSequence接口源码分析

本来是要看String类的，结果看了两个String类的实现接口，毕竟没有分析过嘛，所以还要看的，这回明天终于可以看String类里面的代码了^_^

这个接口内容还是蛮少的，下面贴出分析。

package sourcecode.analysis;/** * Created by caoxiaohong on 17/11/18 23:18. */import java.lang.*;/** * A <tt>CharSequence</tt> is a readable sequence of <code>char</code> values. This * interface provides uniform, read-only access to many different kinds of * <code>char</code> sequences. * A <code>char</code> value represents a character in the <i>Basic * Multilingual Plane (BMP)</i> or a surrogate. Refer to <a * href="Character.html#unicode">Unicode Character Representation</a> for details. * * CharSequence就是一个可读的字符序列.对于不同类型的字符序列,这一接口都以统一且只读的方式去读取. * 一个字符值代表了BMP中的一个字符或者一个代理.(BMP是什么?BMP包含了现代大多数语言的字符集) * * <p> This interface does not refine the general contracts of the {@link * java.lang.Object#equals(java.lang.Object) equals} and {@link * java.lang.Object#hashCode() hashCode} methods.  The result of comparing two * objects that implement <tt>CharSequence</tt> is therefore, in general, * undefined.  Each object may be implemented by a different class, and there * is no guarantee that each class will be capable of testing its instances * for equality with those of the other.  It is therefore inappropriate to use * arbitrary <tt>CharSequence</tt> instances as elements in a set or as keys in * a map. </p> * * 这一接口,并没有提炼出Object类定义的equals()方法和hashCode()方法的通用规范(但是,像其他的接口,比如Map就有equals()方法和 * hashCode()方法,再比如,虽然List接口没有给出这两个方法,但是抽象类Abstract重新定义了这两个方法).因此,对于两个不仅实现了 * CharSequence接口的的对象(可能还继承了其他的类),进行比较时,通常,其结果也是未定义的(因为对于继承了Object的类来说,根据具体的实现, * 比较时,是可以有两种选择的,要么比较地址,使用两个等号==,要么比较内容,使用equals.但是这个接口并没有定义equals方法,也没有用到通常我们 * 做两个对象比较时,用到的equals方法和hashCode方法之间的关系,也就是你重写equals方法时,必须重写hashCode方法,这一点我之前在Object * 源码的分析中说过了).每个对象都可以由不同的类来实现,因此,我们无法保证每个类都有能和其他类实例测试等价性的能力.因此,使用任意的 * CharSequence实例作为set集合的元素或者map中的key,这种做法都是不合适的(为什么不合适呢?因为CharSequence实例是没有equals方法和 * hashCode方法的,所以对应的实例的比较就取决于其继承的类或者其他实现的接口,那么两个被比较的类如果因为继承的类或者实现的接口 * (并且对应继承的类或者接口都对equals和hashCode给出了自己的定义)不同,所以一旦被比较,出现什么结果都是不可控的,故不适合.). * * @author Mike McCloskey * @since 1.4 * @spec JSR-51 */public interface CharSequence {    /**     * Returns the length of this character sequence.
