Class StringTokenizer

java.lang.Object
  oracle.adfnmc.java.util.StringTokenizer

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.util.Enumeration

public class StringTokenizer
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.util.Enumeration

String tokenizer is used to break a string apart into tokens. If returnDelimiters is false, successive calls to nextToken() return maximal blocks of characters that do not contain a delimiter. If returnDelimiters is true, delimiters are considered to be tokens, and successive calls to nextToken() return either a one character delimiter, or a maximal block of text between delimiters.

Constructor Summary

StringTokenizer(java.lang.String string)
Constructs a new StringTokenizer for string using whitespace as the delimiter, returnDelimiters is false.

StringTokenizer(java.lang.String string, java.lang.String delimiters)
Constructs a new StringTokenizer for string using the specified delimiters, returnDelimiters is false.

StringTokenizer(java.lang.String string, java.lang.String delimiters, boolean returnDelimiters)
Constructs a new StringTokenizer for string using the specified delimiters and returning delimiters as tokens when specified.

Method Summary

int	countTokens() Returns the number of unprocessed tokens remaining in the string.
boolean	hasMoreElements() Returns true if unprocessed tokens remain.
boolean	hasMoreTokens() Returns true if unprocessed tokens remain.
java.lang.Object	nextElement() Returns the next token in the string as an Object.
java.lang.String	nextToken() Returns the next token in the string as a String.
java.lang.String	nextToken(java.lang.String delims) Returns the next token in the string as a String.
