iterable of maps contained splitted values

split

public <X> Iterable<X> split(Class<X> clazz,
                             Iterable<String> elements,
                             String separator)

Pass a list of strings and return a list of objects constructed by passing the splitted string values to the constructor of the new object.

This method doesn't need to setup a list of key names in the constructor

Type Parameters:

X - some class

Parameters:

clazz - some class

elements - list of strings to split

separator - separator

Returns:

iterable of instances of some class constructed with splitted values
