This example shows you on how we can search a word within a String object using indexOf() method which returns a position index of a word within the string if found. Otherwise it returns -1.
public class StringSearch{
public static void main(String[] args) {
String strOrig = "Hello Java";
int intIndex = strOrig.indexOf("Java");
if(intIndex == - 1){
System.out.println("Java not found");
}else{
System.out.println("Found Java at index " + intIndex);
}
}
}

Result:
The above code sample will produce the following result.
