What is the difference between strings allocated using new operator & without new operator in java J2ME?

Question

what is the Difference between

String str=new String(\"Thamilan\");

and

String str=\"Thamilan\";

in java

Answer 1

An answer from Java String declaration

   String str = new String("SOME") 

always create a new object on the heap

    String str="SOME"  

uses the String pool

Try this small example:

    String s1 = new String("hello");         
    String s2 = "hello";
     String s3 = "hello";
      System.err.println(s1 == s2);
     System.err.println(s2 == s3); 

To avoid creating unnecesary objects on the heap use the second form.
