How do we split strings in java


Question

Posted (edited)

Hi guys,

 

I have a code snippet here:

String str = msgCont.toString();
    String[] strs = str.split("\n");

    if (strs[2].startsWith("partofthemessage") && strs[2].contains("x")) {
        Main.handleDonation("y", strs[2].split("\\)")[0].split("\\(")[1], str.split("xx: ")[1].substring(0, 17), (int)Double.parseDouble(strs[2].substring(57, strs[2].indexOf(" x"))));
");

 

Will someone care to explain if :

 

 

String[] strs = str.split("\n");

    if (strs[2]

 

means the second string of the msg content?

 

 

Thanks!

The first element of an array is accessible by the value 0. The 2nd element has the position 1.. the 3rd element 2....

array[0] = first element

...

array[2] = 3rd element.

 

The code is hardcoded. Rework it

The guy don't even know how to post a code using tag and u tell him something only people with months of knowledge will understand and then to rework it.

 

I would post a clap clap gif but no worth it. Write him down about volatiles too.

I could just say array[2] = 3rd element. But I preferred to explain it a bit..

 

Maybe that guy, one day will be better than us :D

We will both dead till that day. Or even worst. You will be father with 3 kids who laugh at your coding and a wife who says STOP using the damn computer and help me do laundry U FUCK!

 

Or u can end up like tryskell. No girlfriend, 1 friend who visit you every 3 months from California and you sit with him for 2 hours to eat french croisons and a freemium girlfriend (If you know what i mean :troll:)

I appreciate all the attention guys :) Honestly I'm new to Java, that's true and I'm trying to debug the automatic donation system from l2 packs like ava mythras etc. The project is totally local, no publishing, no selling, just wanna get it done. I got to tweaking the source java to :

 

public static void decode(Message msg) throws Exception {
    Object msgCont = msg.getContent();
    String from = msg.getFrom()[0].toString();
    String str = msgCont.toString();
    String[] strs = str.split("\n");
    if (strs[2].startsWith("This email confirms that you have received a donation of") && strs[2].contains("EUR")) {
        Main.handleDonation("Paypal", strs[2].split("\\)")[0].split("\\(")[1], str.split("Confirmation number: ")[1].substring(0, 17), (int)Double.parseDouble(strs[2].substring(57, strs[2].indexOf(" EUR"))));
        return;
    }
    System.out.println("[FATAL] Corrupted donation from:\n->" + from + " (Please check this eMail)");
}

 

 

 

However I still get the exception about the corrupted donation.

 

The system goes into my mailbox, reads the mail but it doesn't decode it correctly.

 

The e-mails come in like this :

 

image.png.54c300172ebcc40cc75e516f71d8a001.png

 

and my understanding is that the 3rd line is exactly what it should be.

 

The function does not even go to Main.handleDonation, it dies at if (strs[2].startsWith, so it must not recognize the text correctly

 

I'm struggling alone on this for 2 days now.

 

Thanks again to people wanting to help :)

 

:D

String#split generates an array of String based on the pattern you put as parameter, in your case \n, which is the symbol of new line.

 

An array starts at 0, so a 100 size array goes from 0 to 99, getting the 100th, 101th, etc element would end into IOOBE (index out of bounds exception).

 

To debug such crappy stuff, the easiest is to log each cut element and see if it's supposed to be cut that way.

 

Use

System.out.println(Arrays.toString(strs));

To see how your tokens are generated, if they are correctly formed, etc.

 

You can also put logs into handleDonation to see what the transformed Strings are.

 

@Kara` I got a gf, and I visit my friends (14y of friendship for the oldest) every month for some roleplaying session (I'm the DM).

Paypal prvovides IPN (instant payment notification) when a payment is done paypal notifies a given link with the payment details, after that you validate and proceed to save the information into database, then you handle how you will distribute it into your java code read (SELECT FROM etc...) and then reward.

    • ## [1.5.5] - 2026-02-02   ### ✨ New Features - **Discord Login**: You can now sign in with your Discord account. Admins enable and configure Discord login in **cpadmin → Users** (Discord auth settings: Client ID, Client Secret, Redirect URI). If you already have an account with the same email (e.g. forum, Google, or legacy), signing in with Discord links to that account so you keep one profile. Discord login is available on Add Server, My Servers, Vote page, and Premium Ads booking. - **Setup Links**: In **cpadmin → Users**, both Google and Discord login settings now include direct links to their official developer portals (Google Cloud Console and Discord Developer Portal) for easier OAuth app setup.   ### 🔒 Security - **Email Required for Registration**: New user registration via OAuth (Forum, Google, Discord) now requires a valid email address. If the OAuth provider doesn't provide an email (e.g. unverified Discord email), registration is rejected with a clear message. This prevents anonymous accounts and ensures all users can receive important notifications.   ### 🔄 Improvements - **User Auth Badges**: In **cpadmin → Users**, the Registered Members table now shows auth method badges: **Forum**, **Google**, **Discord**, or **Legacy**. Users can have multiple badges if they've linked multiple login methods. - **Server Info Labels**: Translated server info labels (Owner Name, Language, Server Location) are now properly localized in all 5 languages (English, Spanish, Portuguese, Greek, Russian).   ---   ## [1.5.4] - 2026-02-01   ### ✨ New Features - **Google Login**: You can now sign in with your Google account. Admins enable and configure Google login in **cpadmin → Users** (Google auth settings: Client ID, Client Secret, Redirect URI). If you already have an account with the same email (e.g. forum or legacy), signing in with Google links to that account so you keep one profile. The login menu (navbar and login prompts) offers **Login with Forum Account**, **Login with Google** (when enabled), and **Create Forum Account**. Google login is available on Add Server, My Servers, Profile Settings, Vote page, and Premium Ads booking. - **Ban/Unban Members**: In **cpadmin → Users**, admins can ban or unban registered members. Banned users see a full-page message: "Sorry, you are banned from using this site." When a user is banned, all their servers are set to inactive. - **Moderator Activity Log**: **cpadmin → Moderators** now records when a moderator or admin enters the CPAdmin panel (e.g. "Moderator X entered CPAdmin panel at <time>") and when they change any cpadmin settings (only write actions are logged; read-only use is not). - **Clear Moderator Logs**: Admins can clear all moderator activity log entries via a **Clear logs** button with confirmation. Logs are shown at 100 per page with pagination. - **Filter by Moderator**: In the Moderator Activity Log, a **Filter by moderator** dropdown lets you view activity for a specific moderator or "All moderators." - **cpadmin → Users Tab**: New **Users** tab in the admin panel with Registered Members list (paginated), Google auth settings card, and per-user Ban/Unban and server links.   ### 🔄 Improvements - **cpadmin → Servers**: Each server name in the servers table is now clickable and opens that server’s info page. - **cpadmin → Users – Servers column**: The servers count/list is clickable and opens a small modal listing that user’s servers; each server name in the modal links to the server info page. - **cpadmin → Users – Search**: A search bar above the Registered Members table lets you search by **username**, **email**, or **server name**. Results are filtered on the server (paginated); clearing the search resets the list. - **Moderator Activity Log**: Pagination shows "Showing X–Y of Z" and "Page N of M" with Previous/Next when there are more than 100 entries. - **Login UI**: Login options (Forum, Google, Create account) are shown in a consistent dropdown and in modals (Add Server, My Servers, Vote, Premium Ads) for a clearer sign-in experience. - **Vote Page – Unauthenticated**: When you must log in to vote, the page now shows "Vote for [Server Name]" as the main heading and presents login options in a compact section.   ---   ## [1.5.3] - 2026-01-30   ### ✨ New Features - **File Logs in Admin Panel**: Admins can now view CodeIgniter PHP logs (api/writable/logs) directly in **cpadmin → Logs**. Select a date to view the log file, refresh to reload, or delete all log files to free up space.   ### 🔄 Improvements - **Cache System**: Full cache audit and improvements — when you clear cache in cpadmin, both backend and frontend caches are cleared. Server listings, My Servers, pricing, ad config, and chronicles all refresh with fresh data. New paid servers now appear in listings and My Servers immediately. - **Admin Panel – Server Rates**: Server rates in the admin servers table now display in compact format (e.g. x10000 → x10k, x100000 → x100k, x1000000 → x1m) for easier scanning.
