Parses delimited string and returns an array containing the tokens. This parser obeys quotes, so the delimiter character will be ignored if it is inside of a quote. This method assumes that the quote character is not included in the set of delimiter characters.

Parameters:

value - the delimited string to parse.

delim - the characters delimiting the tokens.

Returns:

an array of string tokens or null if there were no tokens.
