先上源码
/**
* Returns an {@code Integer} instance representing the specified
* {@code int} value. If a new {@code Integer} instance is not
* required, this method should generally be used in preference to
* the constructor {@link #Integer(int)}, as this method is likely
* to yield significantly better space and time performance by
* caching frequently requested values.
*
* This method will always cache values in the range -128 to 127,
* inclusive, and may cache other values outside of this range.
*
* @param i an {@code int} value.
* @return an {@code Integer} instance representing {@code i}.
* @since 1.5
*/
public static Integer valueOf(int i) {
if (i >= IntegerCache.low && i <= IntegerCache.high)
return IntegerCache.cache[i + (-IntegerCache.low)];
return new Integer(i);
}
这儿的IntegerCache是一个静态的Integer数组,在类加载时就将-128 到 127 的Integer对象创建了,并保存在cache数组中,一旦程序调用valueOf 方法,如果i的值是在-128 到 127 之间就直接在cache缓存数组中去取Integer对象。而不在此范围内的数值则要new到堆中了。
再看其它的包装器:
- Boolean:(全部缓存)
- Byte:(全部缓存)
- Character(<= 127缓存)
- Short(-128 — 127缓存)
- Long(-128 — 127缓存)
- Float(没有缓存)
- Doulbe(没有缓存)
