I have the following string I need to split by double quotes. below is the sample string
String raw = "\"AKINWALE JOHNSON ROTIMI \" \"100000072 \" \"1985"
"0217 \" \" \" \"0250000066 \""
"\" 08035558619\" \"22324902758 \" \"NG0250002 \" \"9113985 \"";
When I try to split the string by double quotes, knowing that some quotes can be empty
I tried the following : String[] split = raw.split("\"(\\w\\s |\\s )\"");
it is close but I seem to be missing something.
CodePudding user response:
You can simply split it on \\s*\"\\s*
which means "
preceded by or followed by zero or more whitespace character(s).
Demo:
import java.util.Arrays;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String raw = "\"AKINWALE JOHNSON ROTIMI \" \"100000072 \" \"1985"
"0217 \" \" \" \"0250000066 \""
"\" 08035558619\" \"22324902758 \" \"NG0250002 \" \"9113985 \"";
String[] split = raw.split("\\s*\"\\s*");
Arrays.stream(split).forEach(System.out::println);
}
}
Output:
AKINWALE JOHNSON ROTIMI
100000072
19850217
0250000066
08035558619
