    Default Thread Hangs at split method.

    Hi,

    When i am trying to run the following code in a loop in my application my thread is hanging the server.
        /**
         * Finds the separator for time string.
         * 
         * @param timeString time as a string.
         * @return separator.
         */
        private static String findSeparator(String timeString)
        {
            String separator = ":";
            if (timeString != null)
            {
                if (timeString.indexOf(separator) == -1)
                {
                    separator = "\.";
                }
            }
            return separator;
        }
     
        /**
         * Convert the time in HH:MM to time in minutes.
         * 
         * @param timeString time string to be converted (HH:MM:SS).
         * @return the time in HH:MM to time in minutes.
         */
        public static int toMinutes(String timeString, String separator)
        {
            Assert.isTrue(validateTimeString(timeString, separator), "Invalid Time String ["
                    + timeString + "]");
     
            String[] timeParts = timeString.split(separator);
     
            int hrs = Integer.parseInt(timeParts[0]);
            int mins = Integer.parseInt(timeParts[1]);
     
            return (hrs * 60) + mins;
        }
     
        /**
         * Convert the time in HH:MM to time in minutes.
         * 
         * @param timeString time string to be converted (HH:MM:SS).
         * @return the time in HH:MM to time in minutes.
         */
        public static int toMinutes(String timeString)
        {
            int minutes = 0;
     
            if (timeString != null)
            {
                String separator = findSeparator(timeString);
     
                minutes = toMinutes(timeString, separator);
            }
            return minutes;
        }

    Default Re: Thread Hangs at split method.

    separator = "\.";
    Does the above code actually compile? I presume you are calling the function toMinutes(String timeString)?
