Reading entire html file to String?

Question

Are there better ways to read an entire html file to a single string variable than:

    String content = \"\";
    try {
        BufferedReader in = new Buff         


        

Answer 1

For string operations use StringBuilder or StringBuffer classes for accumulating string data blocks. Do not use += operations for string objects. String class is immutable and you will produce a large amount of string objects upon runtime and it will affect on performance.

Use .append() method of StringBuilder/StringBuffer class instance instead.
