How to separate specific elements in string java

Question

Example of what I want to do:
If you pass in \"abc|xyz\" as the first argument and \"|\" as the second argument the method returns List(\"abc

Answer 1

Is it what you are looking for ??There is a predefined function in String class.Make use of it

 String original ="abc|xyz";
 String[] resulted =original.split("\\|");//returns a String array

Play with the resulted array here.

Good luck.
