How to convert a String into an ArrayList?

Question

In my String, I can have an arbitrary number of words which are comma separated. I wanted each word added into an ArrayList. E.g.:

String s = \"a,b,c,d,e,...

If you are importing or you have an array (of type string) in your code and you have to convert it into arraylist (offcourse string) then use of collections is better. like this:

String array1[] = getIntent().getExtras().getStringArray("key1"); or String array1[] = ... then

List allEds = new ArrayList(); Collections.addAll(allEds, array1);
