    I need to save & rebuild ItemStack (ItemStack -> String -> ItemStack), but if I save something like Purple wool it saves: PURPLE WOOL(10), and Material.getMaterial(string.split("\\(")[0]); is returning null with it.

    So, I need get String like this:
    WOOL(10)
    OR
    get that getMaterial working with PURPLE WOOL(10)

    You can use ItemStack.setData(byte).
    Code:java
    1. String type = "wool";
    2. String data = "10";
    3. ItemStack output = new ItemStack(Material.getMaterial(type.toUpperCase()));
    4. output.setData((byte)data);

    I think, you did not understand, I have String (PURPLE WOOL(10)) and I need get ItemStack contains that.
    (Well, I could use something like split it with " " and then with "(", and then extract digits, but this wont work, if some other material would have "DARKWOOD(3)"(<- example, it just wont work, if there wont be a space))
    OR
    Get from ItemStack.getData() instead of : "PURPLE WOOL(10)", "WOOL(10)"

    I answered the Bukkit question. Java questions are not good on this forum I think.

    meowxiik Look at using .substring() or .replace()

    I am a horrible at English, I know hot to split in Java :), and this actually removed the problem BUT what if there will be something , what does NOT have the last word same as the basic material? (PUPRLE WOOL(10) -> PURPLE WOOL(10)<- last word same as the basic material)

    meowxiik So use Java strings manipulation.
    Material.getMaterial(String) is a simple lookup, you need to give the enum name. Maybe you could try to look for a library that allows you to use different search terms - Essentials has it.
