Text File Data ---> Array Posted: May 2, 2002 2:17 AM
Reply to this message Reply
Can anyone tell me a way (or the best way) to put data read from a text file into an array? In the text file, I've got String variables and int variables and I'm having a problem assigning my int values to their instance variable counterparts in my support class, called Student. I've made a new Student object:

Student x = new Student();

but when I try doing x.setWhatever for the int variables, I get the message:
"setWhatever(int) in Student cannot be applied to (java.lang.String)"

I've got to make a Student object to store in each index of the array, so I have to have String and int values in that object. I can send more code if that would help. Thanks.

As you said, you have a text file, therefore, there are no integers in it. What it does have is text, or strings that can perhaps be parsed into integers (and maybe other things). To parse an integer value from a String, you can use Integer.parseInt( String ).
