[morph-user] Can't convert to char

[Bruce L. <lom...@co...>]

I have a situation that requires converting from a char to a String and then
from a String to a char. I've written a converter that works fine to do the
first conversion, but I can't convert from a String to a char because
convertImpl must return an Object. I know that conversion to primitive types
(e.g., int) works for numeric conversion, but I can't see how to get
primitive types returned. Is that possible?

 

BTW, I see that you have submitted a proposal to become an Apache project.
Great move!

Hi Bruce, I'm glad to hear you're still using Morph :)

Unfortunately there isn't really a way to directly return a char 
primitive with the Morph API because, as you point out, it returns a 
Character.  This is more a limitation of the Java language than it is a 
limitation of Morph.  What you can do is return a Character and then 
call Character.charValue() to change the Character wrapper object into a 
char primitive.  Of course if you are using JDK 1.5, the JDK will handle 
this last step for you automatically :)

[Matt B. <gud...@ya...>]

Or, if your char is a member of some object and you
were copying to that owning object Morph should handle
that Character->char conversion for you, IIRC...
