but i tried creating Float wrapper objects that works fine even when we pass double/char/integer.....i dint get it??
It's a quirk of the Float class. There is an overloaded constructor that takes a double. As for integer, char, etc., that is because those types can be implicitly casted to a float.
Also, if its the case then creating an Integer object with Long as arg doesn't work....so why does it differ from float constructors which can take double as an arg....??
Unfortunately, the Integer class doesn't have an overloaded constructor that takes a long.
The
JavaDoc is the best source here. Take a look at the Integer and Float classes, and see what constructors they support.
