It helps to identify classname conflicts: two classes in different packages that have the same name. This can be masked with the * import. It makes dependencies explicit, so that anyone who has to read your code later knows what you meant to import and what you didn't mean to import. It can make some compilation faster because the compiler doesn't have to search the whole package to identify depdencies, though this is usually not a huge deal with modern compilers. The inconvenient aspects of explicit imports are minimized with modern IDEs. Most IDEs allow you to collapse the import section so it's not in the way, automatically populate imports when needed, and automatically identify unused imports to help clean them up.

我工作过的大多数使用大量Java的地方都将显式导入作为编码标准的一部分。我有时仍然使用*来快速创建原型，然后在产品化代码时展开导入列表(一些ide也会为您这样做)。

郑重声明: 当您添加导入时，您也在指示您的依赖项。

您可以很快看到文件的依赖关系(不包括相同名称空间的类)。

导入包中的所有类被认为是一种盲目的方法。这样做的一个主要原因是，它会使类名称空间变得混乱，并可能导致具有相同名称的不同包中的类之间发生冲突。

具体地填充必要的类可以避免这个问题，并清楚地显示需要哪些版本。这有利于代码的可维护性。

以下是我关于这个话题的一些发现。

During compilation, the compiler tries to find classes that are used in the code from the .* import and the corresponding byte code will be generated by selecting the used classes from .* import. So the byte code of using .* import or .class names import will be same and the runtime performance will also be the same because of the same byte code. In each compilation, the compiler has to scan all the classes of .* package to match the classes that are actually used in the code. So, code with .* import takes more time during the compilation process as compared to using .class name imports. Using .* import helps to make code more cleaner Using .* import can create ambiguity when we use two classes of the same name from two different packages. Eg, Date is available in both packages. import java.util.*; import java.sql.*; public class DateDemo { private Date utilDate; private Date sqlDate; }

在Java import语句中使用通配符并不坏。

在《Clean Code》中，Robert C. Martin建议使用它们来避免冗长的导入列表。

以下是建议:

J1: Avoid Long Import Lists by Using Wildcards If you use two or more classes from a package, then import the whole package with import package.*; Long lists of imports are daunting to the reader. We don’t want to clutter up the tops of our modules with 80 lines of imports. Rather we want the imports to be a concise statement about which packages we collaborate with. Specific imports are hard dependencies, whereas wildcard imports are not. If you specifically import a class, then that class must exist. But if you import a package with a wildcard, no particular classes need to exist. The import statement simply adds the package to the search path when hunting for names. So no true dependency is created by such imports, and they therefore serve to keep our modules less coupled. There are times when the long list of specific imports can be useful. For example, if you are dealing with legacy code and you want to find out what classes you need to build mocks and stubs for, you can walk down the list of specific imports to find out the true qualified names of all those classes and then put the appropriate stubs in place. However, this use for specific imports is very rare. Furthermore, most modern IDEs will allow you to convert the wildcarded imports to a list of specific imports with a single command. So even in the legacy case it’s better to import wildcards. Wildcard imports can sometimes cause name conflicts and ambiguities. Two classes with the same name, but in different packages, will need to be specifically imported, or at least specifically qualified when used. This can be a nuisance but is rare enough that using wildcard imports is still generally better than specific imports.
