Java - simple string issue

Question

Possible Duplicate:
string split in java

I have a string:

"jack#james#joahn#logan#"

I know there is a method of the String class that can seperate it on the symbol #. So it will return to me

"jack" "james" "joahn" "logan"

What is the name of this method?

_split()_ is what you look for. google.com is what you should learn for. — Juvanis, Jan 09 '13 at 20:28
Here is one suggestion, if you want to find out methods of a class you can browse javadoc for that class http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/String.html — kosa, Jan 09 '13 at 20:30
The whole list of methods inside the String class isn't so long you can't read it... — Denys Séguret, Jan 09 '13 at 20:30

This is String.split("#"). For example:

String s = "jack#james#joahn#logan#";
String parts[] = s.split("#");
