copied!<p>If you want to split the <code>String</code> at the <code>/</code> character, the <a href="http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#split(java.lang.String)" rel="noreferrer"><code>String.split</code></a> method will work:</p> <p>For example:</p> <pre><code>String s = "prefix/dir1/dir2/dir3/dir4"; String[] tokens = s.split("/"); for (String t : tokens) System.out.println(t); </code></pre> <p>Output</p> <pre><code>prefix dir1 dir2 dir3 dir4 </code></pre> <p><strong>Edit</strong></p> <p>Case with a <code>/</code> in the prefix, and we know what the prefix is:</p> <pre><code>String s = "slash/prefix/dir1/dir2/dir3/dir4"; String prefix = "slash/prefix/"; String noPrefixStr = s.substring(s.indexOf(prefix) + prefix.length()); String[] tokens = noPrefixStr.split("/"); for (String t : tokens) System.out.println(t); </code></pre> <p>The substring without the prefix <code>"slash/prefix/"</code> is made by the <a href="http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#substring(int)" rel="noreferrer"><code>substring</code></a> method. That <code>String</code> is then run through <code>split</code>.</p> <p>Output:</p> <pre><code>dir1 dir2 dir3 dir4 </code></pre> <p><strong>Edit again</strong></p> <p>If this <code>String</code> is actually dealing with file paths, using the <a href="http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/io/File.html" rel="noreferrer"><code>File</code></a> class is probably more preferable than using string manipulations. Classes like <code>File</code> which already take into account all the intricacies of dealing with file paths is going to be more robust.</p>
