Use the split() method on s. So, s.split(","); will produce an String array of the following form: ["['a']", "'b'", "'c']"]. I'll leave it to you to read the javadoc to figure out how to get exactly what you want in the array.

Once have the array, you can add all the elements to a List using the following:

List<String> list = Arrays.asList(split);

EDIT: wrote wrong method.

You could do something like

s = s.replace("[", "").replace("]", "");
String[] split = s.split(",");
List<String> list = Arrays.asList(split);

  1. Remove brackets

  2. String.split() using , separator

  3. For each item remove quotes (')

  4. No 4th point
