Formatting a String

[Kamal Patel]

Hi,
I am trying to format a string e.g.
"ou=Applications"
to just extract the "Application" part of the string?
I think you can use the StringTokenizer class and "=" as a delimeter, but I tried that and it did not work for me!
Can someone please tell me how to do this and give me an example piece of code if possible?
Thanks.

Hi,
hope the following code fragment will help

   .....     
String test = "ou=application";
StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(test,"=");
String ou = st.nextToken();
String application = st.nextToken(); // contains "application"
......

You can also use String.indexOf("=") to see where the equals sign is then use String.substring() to just grab everything after the =
