Answer 3

Try this:

String path = /PravinSB/servlet/com.gjgj.rmf.controllers.Hello

String[] split = path.split("/");

String name = split[1];

also try this:

String path = /PravinSB/servlet/com.gjgj.rmf.controllers.Hello
String name=path.substring(1,status.length()-39);

Answer 4

If you are sure that PravinSB is going to be first item then all above answer is true. But in case even a single item is added say /a/PravinSB/servlet/com.gjgj.rmf.controllers.Hello then its going to be wrong solution.

String path = "/PravinSB/servlet/com.gjgj.rmf.controllers.Hello";
int indexOfString = path.indexOf("PravinSB");
int indexOfNextSlash = path.indexOf("/", indexOfString);
String name=path.substring(indexOfString,indexOfNextSlash);

this will work even if the string is

String path = "/a/PravinSB/servlet/com.gjgj.rmf.controllers.Hello";
