Difference between using StringTokenizer and Strin

Question

This question already has an answer here:

• Scanner vs. StringTokenizer vs. String.Split 10 answers

I've been using String[] split(String) of String class to split any string for some given delimiter, and it worked fine.

However, now it is expected to re-factor the same logic with StringTokenizer. But what are the differences and benifits of using one over the other.

Also, I feel that String[] returned by split() in a single call is much efficient option than using the objects of the class StringTokenizer.
