Field Summary
static Comparator<String>	CASE_INSENSITIVE_ORDER           A Comparator that orders String objects as by compareToIgnoreCase.

Constructor Summary
String()           Initializes a newly created String object so that it represents an empty character sequence.
String(byte[] bytes)           Constructs a new String by decoding the specified array of bytes using the platform's default charset.
String(byte[] bytes, Charset charset)           Constructs a new String by decoding the specified array of bytes using the specified charset.
String(byte[] ascii, int hibyte)           Deprecated. This method does not properly convert bytes into characters. As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to do this is via the String constructors that take a Charset, charset name, or that use the platform's default charset.

String(byte[] ascii, int hibyte, int offset, int count)           Deprecated. This method does not properly convert bytes into characters. As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to do this is via the String constructors that take a Charset, charset name, or that use the platform's default charset.

String(String original)           Initializes a newly created String object so that it represents the same sequence of characters as the argument; in other words, the newly created string is a copy of the argument string.
