How to convert comma separated String to ArrayList?

Source:

import java.util.*;

public class CommaArrayList {
   public static void main(String[] args) {

      String str = "Paul,John,George,Ringo";
      System.out.println("String: " + str);

      ArrayList<String> list = null;

      list = new ArrayList(Arrays.asList(str.split("\\s*,\\s*")));

      System.out.println("ArrayList: " + list);

   }
}

   $ java CommaArrayList 
   String: Paul,John,George,Ringo
   ArrayList: [Paul, John, George, Ringo]
