How to split string literal using java regex

Some time we need to split a string literal based on some delimiters . Java regular expressions provides an easy way of doing it. Let see a sample java program used to split a string literal based on pre-defined delimiter.

MySplitter.java

import java.util.regex.*;

public class MySplitter {

       public static void main(String[] args) {

              String input = "www.naeemgik.blogspot.com";

              Pattern p = Pattern.compile("\\.");

              String pieces[] = p.split(input);

              for (int i = 0; i < pieces.length; i++) {

                     System.out.println(pieces[i]);

              }

       }

}
