I have an issue with trying convert a double to a Long value. I need to convert the double to Long so that it can be stored in a bean of type Long. Here is the code snippet:



I am getting the following exception:

java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "1230.45"


What am I missing?

Thanks in advance.

Long does not include decimals. If that's what you want, you can cast a double to a long and chop off the decimal :

Thanks Christope,

So it looks like my options are to change the bean type
to either a string or double to keep the decimal intact.

Or a BigDecimal object.
