常量池：
即class文件常量池，是class文件的一部分，用于保存编译时确定的数据。
保存的内容如下图：

运行时常量池：
Java语言并不要求常量一定只能在编译期产生，运行期间也可能产生新的常量，这些常量被放在运行时常量池中。
类加载后，常量池中的数据会在运行时常量池中存放！
这里所说的常量包括：基本类型包装类（包装类不管理浮点型，整形只会管理-128到127）和String（也可以通过String.intern()方法可以强制将String放入常量池）
字符串常量池：
HotSpot VM里，记录interned string的一个全局表叫做StringTable，它本质上就是个HashSet<String>。注意它只存储对java.lang.String实例的引用，而不存储String对象的内容
jdk 1.7后，移除了方法区间，运行时常量池和字符串常量池都在堆中。
