Convert object [] array to int [] array in Java?

There seems to be no simple way to do this, but this is what I have done so far. If someone can correct it, its work will be great In "newarray [e] = array [i]. Intvalue();" I received an error "no naming method" intvalue "in type" Java "Found in lang. object."

Solution

You can use integer valueOf.

Integer.valueOf((String) array [i])

The integer class has a method valueof, which takes a string as a value and returns an int value. You can use it If the string passed to it is not a valid integer value, it will throw numberformatexception

In addition, if you are using Java 5 or later, you can try using generics to make the code more readable
