Text Parsing

[timmbo]

Hi All,

I have a text string that contains the following information: "123456789%20%5BNONAME%5D,1234567890%20%5BTEST%5D"

I need to extract the numbers (123456789, 1237567890) and throw them to a vector. Can someone tell me the best way of doing this?

TIA,
Tim

Try the java.util.regex package. Regular expressions work great for that type of parsing, and if you google "regex" you will find all sorts of tutorial information etc. on expression syntax.
