StringTokenizer class in Java

The StringTokenizer class of the java.util package allows an application to break a string into tokens.

• This class is a legacy class that is retained for compatibility reasons although its use is discouraged in new code.
• Its methods do not distinguish among identifiers, numbers, and quoted strings.
• This class methods do not even recognize and skip comments.

Example

Live Demo

import java.util.*;  
public class Sample {
   public static void main(String[] args) {  
      // creating string tokenizer
      StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer("Come to learn");  
      // checking next token
      System.out.println("Next token is : " + st.nextToken());
  }    
}

Output

Next token is : Come
