Re: String tokenizer problem

[James Perkins <jrperkinsjr@xxxxxxxxx>]

I couldn't get it to work either. I even tried getting rid of the plus and
the colon. Nothing seemed to work. Very strange.

I did get the java.util.Scanner to work though. You can use that at Java 5
or higher.


        String text = "Sep 29, 2009 7:00 PM GMT+00:00 Sep 30, 2009 7:30 PM
GMT+00:00";
        Scanner s = new Scanner(text);
        s.useDelimiter("GMT\\+00:00");
        while (s.hasNext()) {
            System.out.println(s.next());
        }

Hope this helps.
