Question

In the app I’m working on, I need to extract the first word from a String and put it into another String and the rest of the words in yet another String. I was able to extract the first word using:

String pString = "KOF0000094 Implementation:ListingRequest:User FO-Partner"
int spacePos3 = pString.indexOf(" ");
String pFirstWord = pString.substring(0,spacePos3);

Result : KOF0000094

Now I want the “Implementation:ListingRequest:User FO-Partner” to put
in another String.

Thanks for your help in advance

This is simple string parsing… just find the first index of the first space… i.e. in a for loop…

if(string.charAt(i) == Characters.SPACE)
    indexOfSpace = i;

Then your first word will be

String part1 = string.substring(0,indexOfSpace);

and the second string will be

String part2 = string.substring(indexOfSpace + 1);
