Using the StringTokenizer class - A Java Code Example

Do you need help with your Java programming?

Click here for instant help with your Java code.

This little java code example shows the principle of the StringTokenizer class. If you want to devide a String that has substrings divided with a separator you create a new instance of the class and send the string as the first argument and the devider as the second argument.
You loop through it by calling the hasMoreTokens() method which returns true until there are no more tokens left.
In this example we just print out each token on a new line.
The output of the example is:

value1
value2
value3
value4

import java.util.StringTokenizer;

/**
*
* @author javadb.com
*/
public class Main {

    /**
     * Example method for using the StringTokenizer class
     */
    public void stringTokenizerExample() {

        String commaSeparated = "value1,value2,value3,value4";

        StringTokenizer tokenizer = new StringTokenizer(commaSeparated,",");

        while (tokenizer.hasMoreTokens())
            System.out.println(tokenizer.nextToken());
    }


    /**
     * @param args the command line arguments
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new Main().stringTokenizerExample();
    }
}
