How to split the string with slash

How do I split the string using forward slash? I've tried with following code:

I have string String x="10/20//30;expecting values 10,20,30.

When I tried to split using x.split("/"); then it only splitting 10,20,"",30
When I tried to split using x.split("//"); then it only splitting 10/20,30.

Please help me to split correctly. Is there any way to skip the one slash if there are 2 slashes present?

Regards, murali

You could do

String[] array = x.split("/+");

Because I can't comment on previous answer:

I think it has to be like

String[] s = x.split("/+");

Because otherwise it would be a conversion from String Array to String, wouldn't it?

It's splitting fine when you use x.split("/") the problem is it is inserting a blank where the // slash is because of how the split works it will return an array of [10, 20, , 30]. Just either remove all blanks from the array or when you process just skip elements that are blank.

Try to use your first approach and remove empty value from the result, in example by using the solution described here: Remove Null Value from String array in java
