java 7 +

public <T> T process(Object model) {
    switch (model.getClass().getSimpleName()) {
    case "Trade":
        return processTrade((Trade) model);
    case "InsuranceTransaction":
        return processInsuranceTransaction((InsuranceTransaction) model);
    case "CashTransaction":
        return processCashTransaction((CashTransaction) model);
    case "CardTransaction":
        return processCardTransaction((CardTransaction) model);
    case "TransferTransaction":
        return processTransferTransaction((TransferTransaction) model);
    case "ClientAccount":
        return processAccount((ClientAccount) model);
    ...
    default:
        throw new IllegalArgumentException(model.getClass().getSimpleName());
    }
}

你可以通过在getSimpleName中引入常量并使用完整的类名来省略字符串操作，这甚至更快:

public static final TRADE = Trade.class.getName();
...
switch (model.getClass().getName()) {
case TRADE:

不幸的是，这是不可能开箱即用的，因为开关case语句需要一个常量表达式。要克服这个问题，一种方法是将枚举值与类名一起使用。

public enum MyEnum {
   A(A.class.getName()), 
   B(B.class.getName()),
   C(C.class.getName());

private String refClassname;
private static final Map<String, MyEnum> ENUM_MAP;

MyEnum (String refClassname) {
    this.refClassname = refClassname;
}

static {
    Map<String, MyEnum> map = new ConcurrentHashMap<String, MyEnum>();
    for (MyEnum instance : MyEnum.values()) {
        map.put(instance.refClassname, instance);
    }
    ENUM_MAP = Collections.unmodifiableMap(map);
}

public static MyEnum get(String name) {
    return ENUM_MAP.get(name);
 }
}

这样就可以像这样使用switch语句

MyEnum type = MyEnum.get(clazz.getName());
switch (type) {
case A:
    ... // it's A class
case B:
    ... // it's B class
case C:
    ... // it's C class
}

java中的最佳解决方案是:

public enum Action { 
    a{
        void doAction(...){
            // some code
        }

    }, 
    b{
        void doAction(...){
            // some code
        }

    }, 
    c{
        void doAction(...){
            // some code
        }

    };

    abstract void doAction (...);
}

这种模式的最大好处是:

你只需要这样做(完全没有开关): void someFunction (Action Action) { action.doAction(…); ｝ 在这种情况下，如果你添加新的动作称为“d”，你必须实现doAction(…)方法

注意:此模式在Joshua’s Bloch“Effective Java (2nd Edition)”中有描述

下面是在Java 8中使用http://www.vavr.io/来实现这一功能的方法

import static io.vavr.API.*;
import static io.vavr.Predicates.instanceOf;
public Throwable liftRootCause(final Throwable throwable) {
        return Match(throwable).of(
                Case($(instanceOf(CompletionException.class)), Throwable::getCause),
                Case($(instanceOf(ExecutionException.class)), Throwable::getCause),
                Case($(), th -> th)
        );
    }

还有一种更简单的方法来模拟使用instanceof的开关结构，你可以通过在方法中创建一个代码块并用标签命名它来实现。然后使用if结构来模拟case语句。如果情况为真，则使用断点LABEL_NAME来退出临时的开关结构。

        DEFINE_TYPE:
        {
            if (a instanceof x){
                //do something
                break DEFINE_TYPE;
            }
            if (a instanceof y){
               //do something
                break DEFINE_TYPE;
            }
            if (a instanceof z){
                // do something
                break DEFINE_TYPE;
            }
        }
