I would like to trim a beginning and ending double quote (") from a string.
How can I achieve that in Java? Thanks!
Answer
You can use String#replaceAll() with a pattern of ^\"|\"$ for this.
E.g.
string = string.replaceAll("^\"|\"$", "");
To learn more about regular expressions, have al ook at http://regular-expression.info.
That said, this smells a bit like that you're trying to invent a CSV parser. If so, I'd suggest to look around for existing libraries, such as OpenCSV.
