Java: the method to strip a string to an array at space?

Question

Just a blackout, I want the String "hello hallo tjena hej tere" to an array broken at space.

Answer 1

"hello hallo tjena hej tere".split(" ");

Note that the argument to the split method is a regular expression. See the documentation for the method here.

Answer 2

String.split should be all you need.

String myString = "hello hallo tjena hej tere";
String[] words = myString.split(" ");

Answer 3

commons-lang has a better implementation with a common contract.

String[] splits = StringUtils.split("hello hallo tjena hej tere");
