Force string to convert to long

[Maja Gralewska]

Hi,

Is there a way to convert a decimal(12.4) string to a long? I have searched google and can't seem to find any examples of this, i know long is a whole number but is there a way to convert it anyway??

Thanks

Hi,

convert it to a Double and then to a long.

Example:

    
String s ="12.4";
long l = Double.valueOf(s).longValue();

For detail, check out the Double API doc.
