Something in the lines of
myString.split("\\s+");This groups all white spaces as a delimiter.
So if I have the string:
"Hello[space][tab]World"
This should yield the strings "Hello" and "World" and omit the empty space between the [space] and the [tab].
As VonC pointed out, the backslash should be escaped, because Java would first try to escape the string to a special character, and send that to be parsed. What you want, is the literal "\s", which means, you need to pass "\\s". It can get a bit confusing.
The \\s is equivalent to [ \\t\\n\\x0B\\f\\r]
