console - Bukkit How do I get a argument from a string? -

i'm trying make plugin detects when people chat "#say " broadcast message arguments. need know how arguments string. please help.

main:

package com.gong.say;  import org.bukkit.bukkit; import org.bukkit.chatcolor; import org.bukkit.plugin.java.javaplugin;  public class main extends javaplugin{     string saymessage = chatcolor.green + "your message has been said!";     public void onenable()     {         bukkit.getlogger().info("[bukkitapienhancer] plugin started!");     bukkit.getpluginmanager().registerevents(new chatlistener(this), this);     }     public void ondisable()     {         bukkit.getlogger().info("[bukkitapienhancer] plugin disabled!");     }  } 

chatlistener:

package com.gong.say;  import org.bukkit.event.eventhandler; import org.bukkit.event.listener; import org.bukkit.event.player.asyncplayerchatevent;  public class chatlistener implements listener {     main plugin;     public chatlistener(main plugin)     {         this.plugin = plugin;     }     @eventhandler     public void onchat(asyncplayerchatevent e)     {         if(e.isasynchronous())         {                 string message = e.getmessage();             if(message.contains("#say"))             {                 //string[] args = arguments after #say                 //bukkit.broadcastmessage(args);             }         }     } } 

you should use commands prefixed /, so, /say string[args], , easier arguments, yet if want prefixed #, that's story. this:

if(message.contains("#say")){     string messagetosend = message.replaceall("#say", "");//get arguments     if(messagetosend.length <= 0){//make sure there's after #say         e.getplayer().sendmessage("correct usage: #say <arguments>"); //the user didn't put after #say         return;     }     else{         e.setcancelled(true);//cancel event         bukkit.getserver().broadcastmessage(messagetosend);//send message comes after "#say"         //you may want add chat color message make stand out more     } } 

so, here's event should like:

@eventhandler public void onchat(asyncplayerchatevent e){     if(e.isasynchronous()){         string message = e.getmessage();         if(message.contains("#say")){             string messagetosend = message.replaceall("#say", "");//get arguments             if(messagetosend.length <= 0){//make sure there's after #say                 e.getplayer().sendmessage("correct usage: #say <arguments>"); //the user didn't put after #say                 return;             }             else{                 e.setcancelled(true);//cancel event                 bukkit.getserver().broadcastmessage(messagetosend);//send message comes after "#say"                 //you may want add chat color message make stand out more             }         }     } }
