我有一个这样的循环:
for (int i = 0; i < max; i++) {
String myString = ...;
float myNum = Float.parseFloat(myString);
myFloats[i] = myNum;
}
这是一个方法的主要内容，该方法的唯一目的是返回浮点数数组。我想让这个方法在出现错误时返回null，所以我把循环放在try…Catch block，像这样:
try {
for (int i = 0; i < max; i++) {
String myString = ...;
float myNum = Float.parseFloat(myString);
myFloats[i] = myNum;
}
} catch (NumberFormatException ex) {
return null;
}
但后来我也想到试一试……Catch块在循环中，像这样:
for (int i = 0; i < max; i++) {
String myString = ...;
try {
float myNum = Float.parseFloat(myString);
} catch (NumberFormatException ex) {
return null;
}
myFloats[i] = myNum;
}
是否有任何理由，性能或其他方面，更喜欢其中一个?
编辑:共识似乎是，将循环放在try/catch中更干净，可能是在它自己的方法中。然而，关于哪个速度更快仍存在争议。有人能测试一下并给出一个统一的答案吗?
虽然性能可能是相同的，“看起来”更好的是非常主观的，但在功能上仍然有相当大的差异。举个例子:
Integer j = 0;
try {
while (true) {
++j;
if (j == 20) { throw new Exception(); }
if (j%4 == 0) { System.out.println(j); }
if (j == 40) { break; }
}
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("in catch block");
}
while循环位于try catch块内，变量'j'将递增到40，当j mod 4为零时输出，当j达到20时抛出异常。
在详细介绍之前，先来看另一个例子:
Integer i = 0;
while (true) {
try {
++i;
if (i == 20) { throw new Exception(); }
if (i%4 == 0) { System.out.println(i); }
if (i == 40) { break; }
} catch (Exception e) { System.out.println("in catch block"); }
}
与上面的逻辑相同，唯一不同的是try/catch块现在在while循环中。
下面是输出(在try/catch中):
4
8
12
16
in catch block
而另一个输出(try/catch in while):
4
8
12
16
in catch block
24
28
32
36
40
这里有很大的不同:
While in try/catch跳出循环
Try /catch in while保持循环活动
As already mentioned, the performance is the same. However, user experience isn't necessarily identical. In the first case, you'll fail fast (i.e. after the first error), however if you put the try/catch block inside the loop, you can capture all the errors that would be created for a given call to the method. When parsing an array of values from strings where you expect some formatting errors, there are definitely cases where you'd like to be able to present all the errors to the user so that they don't need to try and fix them one by one.
