Trying To Cast One Object As Another

Oct 13, 2014

Im trying to loop through a hashmap of objects. They are defined as People objects. People has two subclasses , Instructor and Student. As I am looping through the map of People, I am searching for class Instructor. If I find it, I want to access its method getDepartment in a println by casting to Instructor. When I do I get a runtime error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: java.util.HashMap$Node cannot be cast to uStaff.Instructor
at uStaff.PersonApp.menu(PersonApp.java:108)
at uStaff.PersonApp.main(PersonApp.java:21)

//Instantiate the different Person, student and instructor objects
Person thisPerson = new Person(01,fName,mName,lName,email,ssn,age);
Student thisStudent = new Student(02,"Stacey","Marie","Morgan","smorgan@gmail.com","213-45-6789",20);
thisStudent.setMajor("music");
Instructor thisInstructor = new Instructor(03,"Joe","Douglass","Wells","joe@drumhaven.com","555-98-3029",46);
thisInstructor.setDepartment("Computer Science");

Getting Class Cast Exception While Using Object Input Stream

Jun 5, 2014

I'm developing an application to track the status of a production flow-line and have hit a bit of a snag. When attempting to read saved data I run into this:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: flowline.End_Of_File cannot be cast to flowline.Operation
at flowline.Station.checkLoadPreviousStationStatus(Station.java:91)
at flowline.Station.main(Station.java:212)
Java Result: 1

I've been reading up on different methods to saving and retrieving data and have decided ObjectInputStream would be the best option.

The save method works fine, I opted to use a EndOfFile class to determine when I've reached the end of the input stream. The problem is, when my loop encounters this object, it doesn't terminate the loop.

public void checkLoadPreviousStationStatus() throws FileNotFoundException, IOException,
ClassNotFoundException, EOFException, TempArrayOutOfBoundsException{
Object loadOpn = null;
End_Of_File eof = new End_Of_File();
File f = new File(fileName);

[Code] .....

The Operation cast is a cast to the objects my LinkedList contains. The highlighted line is where the exception occurs.

Type Safety - Unchecked Cast From Object To LinkedList (EventData)

Feb 28, 2014

I am getting "Type safety: Unchecked cast from Object to LinkedList<EventData>" in eclipse for a piece of code stated below

public LinkedList<EventData> loadFromFile(File file) {
queue=new LinkedList<EventData>();
//Some piece of code
return (LinkedList<EventData>)queue.clone(); //--->getting warning here
}

I know that because clone() method is returning Object, hence compiler doesn't have type information that's why showing warning. I don't want to suppress this warning instead i want to fix it.

Cast 2D Array To ArrayList

Jan 23, 2014

I ve got a 2d array and I want to cast it in an 2d arraylist. I ve create a function that cast an array to arraylist. My problem arises, when I tried to parse the whole 2d matrix to the arraylist. I use the following code:

Java Code: double sums[][] = computeSums(lab, projections);
ArrayList<ArrayList<Double>> lists = new ArrayList<ArrayList<Double>>();
ArrayList<Double> nu = new ArrayList<Double>();
System.out.println(sums[0].length);
for (int i = 0; i < sums.length; i++) {

ArrayList<Double> tt = toList(sums[i], nu);
lists.add(tt);
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

The problem is that only the first matrix sums[0] is copied to the 2d arraylist sums.length times. How is is possible to store all the different sums matrices to the arraylist??

JSP :: JSTL And EL - Long Value Cast To String

Mar 27, 2015

I'm trying to write a condition to jstl if tag,

<c:forEach var="ledg" items="user_ledgers">
<c:if test="${ledg.transactionID == param['trns']}">
<c:out value="${ledg.name}"/>
</c:if>
</c:forEach>

Ledg is an object of ledger class and transactionID is a field of type long.

I found this error while runtime.

javax.el.PropertyNotFoundException: Property 'transactionID' not found on type java.lang.String

I tried to convert transactioID value to String by several ways. But not working.

String concatenation
<c:if test="${(ledg.transactionID+’’) == param['trns']}">
Using custom tag
<c:set var="equals" scope="page">
<z:doTheyEquals v1="${ledg.transactionID}" v2="${param['trns']}"/>
</c:set>

It also expects String type.

Input From Different Classes - Cannot Cast Int To String

Oct 18, 2014

I am working on a program where I want the user to input multiple classes.

One int, and one String.

Can this be done? if so, how?

I have a tried to get input from both, like in the code below:

Java Code:

import java.util.Scanner;
public class ForumFlowchart {
public static void main(String[]args){
//Creating scanner.
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
//Get information about job
System.out.println("Type in Int");
int i1 = input.nextInt();

[Code] ....

If I keep my input in the same class, I get the error "Can not cast int to string". My question is, it is possible to get an input from both an Int and a String in the same program?

Compile Error - Cannot Cast From Integer To Byte

May 29, 2014

I have a msg object that contains an ArrayList<Integer> collection. However, in order to send the elements in the array over the udp socket, it needs to be sent as a byte[] array. So why am I using ArrayList<Integer> over byte array in first place? Well when I receive data from socket from embedded c program, I need to get an unsigned representation of the data, and thus I need to store it in integers, since bytes in Java are unsigned and unsigned chars in c that are greater than 127 will yield incorrect values in java. But when I send an ack back over the socket, I need to send the data back as bytes. So I convert the ArrayList<Integer> to a byte array:

Java Code: byte[] data = msg.toByteArray();
DatagramPacket response = new DatagramPacket(data, data.length,
packet.getAddress(), packet.getPort());
public class Gprs {
...
public byte[] toByteArray(){

[Code] ....

The problem is I get an "Cannot cast from Integer to byte" when trying to cast the integer to byte: data[i] = (byte)m_data.get(i);

How can I resolve this?

Equals Method - Take Object Reference And Return True If Given Object Equals This Object

Mar 28, 2014

Create an equals method that takes an object reference and returns true if the given object equals this object.

Hint: You'll need 'instanceof' and cast to a (Geocache)

So far I have:

public boolean equals(Object O){
if(O instanceof Geocache){
Geocache j=(Geocache) O;
if (this.equals(j)) //I know this is wrong... but I can't figure it out
return true;
}

else return false;
}

I think I have it correct up to the casting but I don't understand what I'm suppose to do with the this.equals(). Also I'm getting an error that I'm not returning a boolean... I get this all the time in other problems. I don't get why since I have to instances of returning booleans in this. "returns true if the given object equals this object" makes no sense to me. I assume the given object, in my case, is 'O'. What is 'this' object referring to?

Get Object Strings To Print In List So That User Can Select That Object To Manipulate Its Attributes

Oct 7, 2014

I am new to Java and have read books, the Java docs, and searched the Internet for my problem to no avail. I have an Array of objects that contains strings. How can I get the object's strings to print in a list so that the user can select that object to manipulate its attributes? For example, the user can select "Guitar 1" from a list and manipulate its attributes like tuning it, playing it, etc. I have a class called Instruments and created 10 guitar objects.Here is the code:

Instrument [] guitar = new Instrument[10];
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
guitar[0] = new Instrument("Guitar 1");
guitar[1] = new Instrument("Guitar 2");
guitar[2] = new Instrument("Guitar 3");
guitar[3] = new Instrument("Guitar 4");
guitar[4] = new Instrument("Guitar 5");
guitar[5] = new Instrument("Guitar 6");

Inheritance Relationship Between Type Of Actual Object And Object Reference?

Apr 15, 2014

For example I create an object like this:

BankAccount b = new SavingsAccount();

Now lets say that I want to access a method 'addInterest()' that is in the 'SavingsAccount' class I would have to do: '((SavingsAccount)s).addInterest();'

The question I have is why do I have to cast 'b' to SavingsAccount? Isn't the actual object reference of 'b' already an instance of 'SavingsAccount' class? How does the 'BankAccount' affect the object itself? I'm really confused as to what class is truly getting instantiated and how BankAccount and SavingsAccount are both functioning to make the object 'b'.

Object Reference Variable Unwilling To Be Reset To A Different Object Type

Nov 6, 2014

I don't understand why the object reference variable 'a' cannot be recast from a thisA object reference to a thisB object reference.Is it the case that once a reference variable is linked to a particular object type then it cannot switch object types later on.I am facing the Java Associate Developer exam soon and I am just clearing up some issues in my head around object reference variable assignment,

class thisA {}
class thisB extends thisA { String testString = "test";}
public class CastQuestion2 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
thisA a = new thisA();
thisB b = new thisB();

Create Object Deriving From PrintingClass And Use That Object To Print Text

Apr 9, 2014

Task:The main method of the class Things below creates an object called printer deriving from the class PrintingClass and uses that object to print text. Your task is to write the PrintingClass class.

Program to complete:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Things {
public static void main(String args[]) {
String characterString;
Scanner reader = new Scanner(System.in);
PrintingClass printer = new PrintingClass();
System.out.print("Type in the character string for printing: ");
characterString = reader.nextLine();
printer.Print(characterString);
}
}

// Write the missing class here

Note: In this exercise the solution is part of a conversion unit where many classes have been declared. Because of this the classes are not declared as public using the public attribute.

Example output

Type in the character string for printing: John Doe

John Doe

My Class:
class PrintingClass {
public void print(){
System.out.println(characterString);
}
}
