Using the StringTokenizer

Question

Hi all,
I'ld like to use the StringTokenizer to solve the following situatio:
I have a dynamic String as: |type_1:value-1|,...,|type_1:value-n|,|type_2:value-1|,...,|type_2:value-n|,...,|type_n:value-1|,...|type_n:value-n|.
So My idea is to get for each type, all his values and puting them into an array and when I want to get (for example) the values associated to the type_1 I may have: (value-1,value-2,...,value-n) and so on. Can some help me to do this class?

Well, the basic problem of getting the needed values per type can be done by:
public class A{
public static Vector getList (String string,String type){
     Vector v = new Vector();
     StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer (string,"|" );
     type = type+":";
     String tmp = null;
     while(st.hasMoreTokens()){
          tmp = st.nextToken();
     if (tmp.startsWith(type)){
     v.add(tmp.substring(type.length())
     return v;
}
