Java String split is not working

Question

Java Experts ,

Please look into the below split command code and let me know why last two nulls are not captured.

String test = \"1,O1,,,,0.0000,0.0000,         


        

Answer 1

As mentioned above, test.split(","); will ignore trailing blank strings. You could use the two parameter method with a large second argument. However, the API also states

If n is non-positive then the pattern will be applied as many times
as possible and the array can have any length.

where n is the second argument. So if you want all the trailing strings, I would recommend

test.split(",", -1);
