Class LineSplitter

java.lang.Object
  edu.tum.cs.commons.string.LineSplitter

public class LineSplitter
extends Object

This class is used to split a string in lines.

Note: According to tests I performed this is the fastest method to split a string. It is about nine times faster than the regex-bases split with:

 Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("\r\n|\r|\n");
 pattern.split(content);
