Problem in parsing

[Pramod P Deore]

Hi, Ranchers I am parsing one string with split() method. But Output is not getting what I expected. following is my code:

import java.util.*;
class ParseTest
{
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		ParseTest pt = new ParseTest();
		String str = "0|$Pramod Deore|^201086|^N|^05-Apr-2011 16:41:27|^31-Mar-2011|^29-Mar-2011|^29-Mar-2011|^23-Mar-2011|^Y|^N|^O|^O|^O|^O|^0|^Welcome to |^Pramod Deore logged on. You last accessed the site on 05-Apr-2011 03:55 p.m. IST|^12345|^ |^242.45.78.792|^4505|^|$";
		String delims = "[|$^]";
		String[] tokens = str.split(delims);
    	
    		for (int i=0;i<tokens.length;i++)
    		{
    			System.out.println(tokens[i]);
    		}
    		
    		System.out.println (tokens.length);
    			
	}

}

I want output as :

Means after every line one space is added. How to get expected output? Thanks in advance

You probably want this as regex "[|$^]+"
But then there are still empty lines in your result.

How to remove this empty line?

[Pramod P Deore]

Ohh My Bad

You are right Wouter Oet. There is a blank line because string itself contains one space. Thank you very much.

Glad I could help.
