Parsing text Java from PDF

Question

I would like to ask, how can i parse text. I had extracted text from PDF file with PDFBox into normal text, which is output in console. For example this one:

SHA256: 51c11994540537b633cf91b276b3c34556695ed870a5d3f7451e993262a4a745

I need to get some values, for example value of MD5, File name etc..how can i reach it in Java? Thanks a lot

---

I have tried so : in this while a i added this

String keySHA256 = "SHA256:";
private static String SHA256Value = null;

if (line.contains(keySHA256)) {
    //  System.out.println(line);
    int length = keySHA256.length();
    SHA256Value = line.substring(length);
    System.out.println("SHA256 >>>>" + SHA256Value);
}

but sometimes it doesnt get right value..please help..

This could be a good example for you to start learning more about Java IO and String parsing. Google is your friend.

//uri where your file is 
String fileName = "c://lines.txt";
// read the file into a buffered reader
try (BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(fileName))) {

    String line;
    while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) { //iterate on each line of the file
        System.out.println(line); // print it if you want 
        String[] split=line.split(" "); // split your line into array of strings, each one is a separate word that has no spaces in it.
        //add any checks or extra processes here 
    }

} catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}
