public final class Integer

extends java.lang.Number

The Integer class wraps a value of the primitive type int in an object. An object of type Integer contains a single field whose type is int.

In addition, this class provides several methods for converting an int to a String and a String to an int, as well as other constants and methods useful when dealing with an int.

If the radix is smaller than Character.MIN_RADIX or larger than Character.MAX_RADIX, then the radix 10 is used instead.

If the first argument is negative, the first element of the result is the ASCII minus character '-'. If the first argument is not negative, no sign character appears in the result. The following ASCII characters are used as digits:

0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

Parameters:

i - an integer.

getInteger

public static Integer getInteger(java.lang.String nm)

Determines the integer value of the system property with the specified name.

The first argument is treated as the name of a system property. System properties are accessible through getProperty and , a method defined by the System class. The string value of this property is then interpreted as an integer value and an Integer object representing this value is returned. Details of possible numeric formats can be found with the definition of getProperty.

If there is no property with the specified name, or if the property does not have the correct numeric format, then null is returned.

Parameters:

nm - property name.

Returns:

the Integer value of the property.

Since:

JDK1.0

getInteger

public static Integer getInteger(java.lang.String nm,
                                 int val)

Determines the integer value of the system property with the specified name.

The first argument is treated as the name of a system property. System properties are accessible through getProperty and , a method defined by the System class. The string value of this property is then interpreted as an integer value and an Integer object representing this value is returned. Details of possible numeric formats can be found with the definition of getProperty.

If there is no property with the specified name, or if the property does not have the correct numeric format, then an Integer object that represents the value of the second argument is returned.

Parameters:

nm - property name.

val - default value.

Returns:

the Integer value of the property.

getInteger

public static Integer getInteger(java.lang.String nm,
                                 Integer val)

Determines the integer value of the system property with the specified name.

The first argument is treated as the name of a system property. System properties are accessible through getProperty and , a method defined by the System class. The string value of this property is then interpreted as an integer value and an Integer object representing this value is returned.

If the property value begins with "0x" or "#", not followed by a minus sign, the rest of it is parsed as a hexadecimal integer exactly as for the method Integer.valueOf with radix 16.

If the property value begins with "0" then it is parsed as an octal integer exactly as for the method Integer.valueOf with radix 8.

Otherwise the property value is parsed as a decimal integer exactly as for the method Integer.valueOf with radix 10.

The second argument is the default value. If there is no property of the specified name, or if the property does not have the correct numeric format, then the second argument is returned.

Parameters:

nm - property name.

val - default value.

Returns:

the Integer value of the property.
