How do I concatenate two strings in Java?

Question

I am trying to concatenate strings in Java. Why isn\'t this working?

public class StackOverflowTest {  
    public static void main(String args[]) {
                


        

Answer 1

you can use stringbuffer, stringbuilder, and as everyone before me mentioned, "+". I'm not sure how fast "+" is (I think it is the fastest for shorter strings), but for longer I think builder and buffer are about equal (builder is slightly faster because it's not synchronized).
