    Default HELP: I have problem casting from Vector to Integer in Java

    Hello!
    I have a function which queries all users from the database and prints their details, this function calls the line

    Integer usrId=(Integer)((Vector)results.get(i)).get(0);

    which converts the results set into vector, it gets a corresponding vector and gets the first element which corresponds to the id and then casts it as interger, but when i run it, this line gives errors like:

         com.sun.corba.ee.impl.orbutil.threadpool.ThreadPoolImpl$WorkerThread.run(ThreadPoolImpl.java:540)
         [java] Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Integer cannot be cast to java.util.Vector
         [java]     at ejb.UserDirectory.printUsers(Unknown Source)
         [java]     at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)
         [java]     at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39)

    Now i wonder how else can i implement this method? For it worked before and now its giving me errors. Please help.

    Here is the complete code for the method:


    public String printUsers(){
     
    		Query q = em.createNativeQuery("select id from EntityObject");
     
    	List results = q.getResultList();
     
          		String str=new String();
          		EntityObject msgUser;      
          		int i;
     
    		for (i=0;i<results.size();i++) {
            		Integer usrId=(Integer)((Vector)results.get(i)).get(0);// This line gives errors
            		msgUser=em.find(EntityObject.class,usrId);
            		str=str+msgUser.toStringShort()+"\n";
    		}
           		return(str);
           	}

    Separate your compound statement up into single, simple statements to get the correct type for each usage.

    Norm, Thanks a lot for a reply
    I separated the elements as you advised, but i still get the same result: Here is the new code after i modified

    public String printUsers(){
     
    		Query q = em.createNativeQuery("select id from EntityObject");
     
    	List results = q.getResultList();
     
          		String str=new String();
          		EntityObject msgUser;      
          	       String str=new String();
                   MessageUser msgUser;      
                    List element; //This new variable holds the current value from list
                  int i;
     
            for (i=0;i<results.size();i++) {
                //Integer usrId=(Integer)((Vector)results.get(i)).get(0);
     
                       element = (Vector) results.get(i);
                       Integer usrId = (Integer) element.get(0); //This still gives errors
     
                       msgUser=em.find(EntityObject.class,usrId);
                    str=str+msgUser.toStringShort()+"\n";
            }
           		return(str);
    }

    When you get an error, please copy and paste here the full text of the error.

    Print out the value of the variables that are being used to be sure that they are what you expect. Use the getClass() method.

    Thumbs up Re: HELP: I have problem casting from Vector to Integer in Java [SOLVED]

    Norm, thanks a lot for the replies, I got a solution to it.
    I guess i was casting it from Integet to vector in the first place, which was supposed to be a straight way from List to getting the first element, hence i was going the wrong way at first.

    Thanks a lot for your help.
     
    public String printUsers(){
     
    		Query q = em.createNativeQuery("select id from EntityObject");
     
    	List results = q.getResultList();
     
          		String str=new String();
          		EntityObject msgUser;      
          	       String str=new String();
                   MessageUser msgUser;      
                    List element; //This new variable holds the current value from list
                  int i;
     
            for (i=0;i<results.size();i++) {
                         Integer usrId =(Integer) results.get(i);        //This was modified and gives the correct value now          
                       msgUser=em.find(EntityObject.class,usrId);
                    str=str+msgUser.toStringShort()+"\n";
            }
           		return(str);
    }

    how to use the getClass() method
    getClass() is a method in the Object class that you can use it with any object to get and display the class of any object. Your code was having a casting problem. The error message should show you the classes that were involved. Printing the results from getClass() can help you debug the casting problem.

    Okay,
    Thanks for the description. It has been helpful.
    Thanks a lot, i was actually doing the operations which were used for Vector methods and obsolete for List, that's what i discovered when i came to find a solution. With a vector, i had to cast and do all those operations, but with List it was simple and straight, so it is now working.
