String Tokenizer changing Delimiters, don't show it

I need to split a string that is "Kermit D.Frogge", so this is the code I've used:

firstName = strTkn.nextToken();
middleInitial = strTkn.nextToken("."); 
//changing the delimiters to a . because there is no space between D and Frogge
lastName = strTkn.nextToken(" "); 
//changing delimiters back to a space
hourlyWage = Double.parseDouble(strTkn.nextToken());

However, the result is:

Kermit
D
.Frogge

How would I use string tokenizer and not keep the period?

Solution

  • Use the constructor with two arguments. The second argument is a string whose characters are delimiters.

    StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(string, " .");
