---

[OmniFaces utilities] The csvToList() method converts comma (or specified delimiter) separated values in a string into a list with those values.

---

Method:

See also: Utils#isEmpty()

Usage:

using the default delimiter, ","

String clientIds = "{\"cid\":\"formId_Ajax:name\"},{\"cid\":\"formId_Ajax:surname\"},{\"cid\":\"formId_Ajax:city\"},{\"cid\":\"formId_Ajax:state\"},{\"cid\":\"formId_Ajax:zipcode\"},{\"cid\":\"formId_Ajax:address\"},{\"cid\":\"formId_Ajax:email\"}";

List<String> listClientIds = Utils.csvToList(clientIds);

for (String clientId : listClientIds) {

     System.out.println(clientId);

}

specify the delimiter, (e.g. ";")

String clientIds = "{\"cid\":\"formId_Ajax:name\"};{\"cid\":\"formId_Ajax:surname\"};{\"cid\":\"formId_Ajax:city\"};{\"cid\":\"formId_Ajax:state\"};{\"cid\":\"formId_Ajax:zipcode\"};{\"cid\":\"formId_Ajax:address\"};{\"cid\":\"formId_Ajax:email\"}";

List<String> listClientIds = Utils.csvToList(clientIds, ";");

for (String clientId : listClientIds) {

     System.out.println(clientId);

}

Output in both use cases:

{"cid":"formId_Ajax:name"}

{"cid":"formId_Ajax:surname"}

{"cid":"formId_Ajax:city"}

{"cid":"formId_Ajax:state"}

{"cid":"formId_Ajax:zipcode"}

{"cid":"formId_Ajax:address"}

{"cid":"formId_Ajax:email"}
