1. 三者主要区别如下:
- @NotEmpty :用于集合类,不能为null,且size>0
- @NotNull:不能为null,但可以为empty,没有size的约束
- @NotBlank:只用于String,不能为null,且trim()之后size>0
2. 通过查看源码注释如下:
@NotEmpty
/**
* Asserts that the annotated string, collection, map or array is not {@code null} or empty.
*
* @author Emmanuel Bernard
* @author Hardy Ferentschik
*/
也就是说,加了@NotEmpty的String类、Collection、Map、数组,是不能为null或者长度为0的。(String、Collection、Map的isEmpty()方法)
@NotNull
/**
* The annotated element must not be {@code null}.
* Accepts any type.
*
* @author Emmanuel Bernard
*/
即不能为null。
@NotBlank
/**
* Validate that the annotated string is not {@code null} or empty.
* The difference to {@code NotEmpty} is that trailing whitespaces are getting ignored.
*
* @author Hardy Ferentschik
*/
和{@code NotEmpty}不同的是,尾部空格被忽略,也就是说,纯空格的String也是不符合规则的。所以才会说@NotBlank用于String。
3. 示例:
1.String name = null;
@NotNull: false
@NotEmpty:false
@NotBlank:false 2.String name = "";
@NotNull:true
@NotEmpty: false
@NotBlank: false 3.String name = " ";
@NotNull: true
@NotEmpty: true
@NotBlank: false 4.String name = "Great answer!";
@NotNull: true
@NotEmpty:true
@NotBlank:true
