How to separate a String on multiple delimiters?

I have string "1000:2000,3000" and I need to divide it into 3 strings so something like that:

"1000"
"2000"  
"3000"

My code looks like:

int datas = 0;
String item = "";
String data = "";
String pocet = "";
List<String> items = "1000:2000,3000";
for (int ii = 0; ii < items.size(); ii++) {
    System.out.println(items.get(ii));
    int delkaid = items.get(ii).indexOf(":");
    int delkadat = items.get(ii).indexOf(",") - items.get(ii).indexOf(":");
    int delkapoctu = items.get(ii).length() - items.get(ii).indexOf(",");


    for (int ite = 0; ite < delkaid; i++) {
        item = item + items.get(ii).charAt(ite) + "";
    }

    for (int ite = 0; ite < delkadat; i++) {
        data = data + items.get(ii).charAt(items.get(ii).indexOf(":") + 1 + ite) + "";
    }

    for (int ite = 0; ite < delkapoctu; i++) {
        pocet = pocet + items.get(ii).charAt(items.get(ii).indexOf(",") + 1 + ite) + "";
    }
    datas = Integer.valueOf(data);

}

But I have some mistake in the code.

Your code doesnt compile due to the assignment of a String to your List but you could split on an alternation

String[] array = str.split(":|,");

A corresponding integer array of equal size can be used to hold the integer values. These can be processed in a basic for loop

Here is a link to a running example:

public static void main (final String[] args)
{
    final String s = "1000:2000,3000";
    final String[] a = s.split("[:,]");
    for (final String n : a)
    {
        System.out.println(n);
    }
}

Outputs

1000
2000
3000

this will split numbers on any delimiters

String numbers[] = line.split("\\D+");

You can use split() method:

String[] tokens = str.split(":|,");
