how to check if string contains '+' character [duplicate]

Answer 1

You need this instead:

if(s.contains("+"))

contains() method of String class does not take regular expression as a parameter, it takes normal text.

EDIT:

String s = "ddjdjdj+kfkfkf";

if(s.contains("+"))
{
    String parts[] = s.split("\\+");
    System.out.print(parts[0]);
}

OUTPUT:

ddjdjdj
