removing whitespace from String.

hi i am trying to remove whitespace from string, but have been unable to do
so in cases where there are 3 consecutive whitespaces. for eg.

String X = X.replaceAll(" ", "-");

replaces only a maximum of 2 consecutive whitespace and not 3. i tried
running the relaceAll, once again on the already modified string, but it did
not help.

any ideas will be helpful.

Thanks

Rohit

Did you try to Google for "java replace all spaces"?
