Java - Splitting a CSV file into an Array

Question

I have managed to split a CSV file based on the commas. I did this by placing a dummy String where ever there was a \',\' and then splitting based on the dummy String.

Answer 1

I don't see why you need a dummy string. Why not split on comma?

BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("file.csv"));
String line;
while ((line = in.readLine()) != null) {
    String[] fields = line.split(",");
}
