Convert comma separated string of ints to int array

I only found a way to do it the opposite way round: create a comma separated string from an int list or array, but not on how to convert input like string str = "1,2,3,4,5"; to an array or list of ints.

Here is my implementation (inspired by this post by Eric Lippert):

    public static IEnumerable<int> StringToIntList(string str)
    {
        if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(str))
        {
            yield break;
        }

        var chunks = str.Split(',').AsEnumerable();

        using (var rator = chunks.GetEnumerator())
        {
            while (rator.MoveNext())
            {
                int i = 0;

                if (Int32.TryParse(rator.Current, out i))
                {
                    yield return i;
                }
                else
                {
                    continue;
                }
            }
        }
    }

Do you think this is a good approach or is there a more easy, maybe even built in way?

EDIT: Sorry for any confusion, but the method needs to handle invalid input like "1,2,,,3" or "###, 5," etc. by skipping it.

Let us assume that you will be reading the string from the console. Import System.Linq and try this one:

int[] input = Console.ReadLine()
            .Split(',', StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)
            .Select(int.Parse)
            .ToArray();

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class problem
{
public static void main(String args[])enter code here
{
  String line;
  String[] lineVector;
  int n,m,i,j;
  Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
  line = sc.nextLine();
  lineVector = line.split(",");
  //enter the size of the array
  n=Integer.parseInt(lineVector[0]);
  m=Integer.parseInt(lineVector[1]);
  int arr[][]= new int[n][m];
  //enter the array here
  System.out.println("Enter the array:");
  for(i=0;i<n;i++)
  {
  line = sc.nextLine();
  lineVector = line.split(",");
  for(j=0;j<m;j++)
  {
  arr[i][j] = Integer.parseInt(lineVector[j]);
  }
  }
  sc.close();
}
}

On the first line enter the size of the array separated by a comma. Then enter the values in the array separated by a comma.The result is stored in the array arr. e.g input: 2,3 1,2,3 2,4,6 will store values as arr = {{1,2,3},{2,4,6}};
