PHP has parse_str(), is there an equivalent function that does the same thing in java?

Answer 1

PHPs parse_str has two modes of operation:

1. If given a single argument, parse_str will set parameters as variables in the current scope. For this mode of operation, there is no equivalent in Java.
2. If given two arguments, the second argument must be an array which will be populated with the query string parameters/values. For an equivalent in Java, see this answer on parsing query strings in Java.
