Question

hi
I have a text file whose content is 1.0 , 1.1
i have to get the separator as ,
Is there any method to get the separator alone

Answer 1

Well the method is still the same my friend...all you havve to do is to change seperator as the input and i feel their is bit of ambiguity i describing your requirement also
Anyways checkout,below example which might be of some help :)
import java.io.File;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class InputFileUtil{
    /**Prints seperated output as per the Input delim/pattern given */
    public void parseFile(String fileName,String inputSeperator){
               Scanner sc = null;
                try{
                     sc = new Scanner(new File(fileName));
                     sc.useDelimiter(inputSeperator);
                     while(sc.hasNext())
                       System.out.println(sc.next());
                }catch(Exception exp){
                       exp.printStackTrace();
                }finally{
                     if(sc != null){
                                 try{
                                     sc.close();
                                     sc = null;
                                  }catch(Exception ep){
                                       ep.printStackTrace();
     public static void main(String s[]){
           Scanner sc = null;
           String patterm = null;
            try{
                System.out.print("Please Enter a delimter Pattern:");
                sc = new Scanner(System.in);
                pattern = sc.next();
                new InputFileUtil().parseFile("fileName",pattern);      
                System.out.println("\nResults....");       
            }catch(Exception ec){
                    ec.printStackTrace();
            } finally{
                if(sc != null){
                      try{
                            sc.close();
                            sc = null;
                      }catch(Exception exp){
                          exp.printStackTrace();
