Removing whitespace from strings in Java

Question

I have a string like this:

mysz = \"name=john age=13 year=2001\";

I want to remove the whitespaces in the string. I tried trim()

You've already got the correct answer from Gursel Koca but I believe that there's a good chance that this is not what you really want to do. How about parsing the key-values instead?

import java.util.Enumeration;
import java.util.Hashtable;

class SplitIt {
  public static void main(String args[])  {

    String person = "name=john age=13 year=2001";

    for (String p : person.split("\\s")) {
      String[] keyValue = p.split("=");
      System.out.println(keyValue[0] + " = " + keyValue[1]);
    }
  }
}

output:
name = john
age = 13
year = 2001
