How to convert int into String

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

How I can convert int in to String?

I have following code

int j = 0;
j = wdContext.currentContextElement().getFromUserIDForRoleAssignment();
int k = 0;
k = wdContext.currentContextElement().getToUserIDForRoleAssignment();
int l = 0;
l = j + l;
if (thisUser.getUniqueID().equals(j)  {
					}

The above code is failing as thisUser.getUniqueID().equals(j) is incorrect syntacially. I have to convert j into string.

Regards,

Gary

Converting int to String is straightforward, however are sure you actually need to? The Unique user id isn't normally an integer value, i.e. it normally has a datasource prefix etc. Therefore even if you convert J in you example code to a String I don't believe the strings will ever match.

To convert int to String you can use either of the following static methods.

String.valueOf(int)

Integer.toString(int)
