Cast the int inappend method of StringBuffer

Posted by Kishori Sharan on May 19, 2001 at 1:10 PM

When you are appening the int to StringBuffer then cast it to char as shown below. Because you are storing an int so string buffer stores the 65 as "65" and not as char A.
receiveString.append((char)receiveChar);
