Convert a string into a colour: HELP please

I have a JComboBox which gives a Color selection (String) and i want to convert the selected string into a color so that i can call:
Private void setColor(Color color)
colorname = color;
repaint();
}any ideas?

I have a class similar to the one shown in the previous post. Not wishing to be redundant, I am listing the class only to show other color constants that could be used in your application.
I also am inclined to suggest using the JColorChooser widget.

Can you please let me know for any sample code in xslt/java mapping for converting XML string into XML. We use SAP Pi 7.0
My XML string starts like this

Convert XML string into DOM

Hi all,
I have a question here regarding converting XML string into a DOM document.
How can I do this in Java?
The Document.Parse() methods do not have one that takes in String as its parameter.
I'm not sure what is the best way to do this in Java.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

How do you convert this String into a double?

Hi, in this code I want to convert String arg into a double. I'm trying to do this so that I can convert some string into a double in this calculator that I'm making. Here is the code:
public class par {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String str = "351";
double arg = new double(str); // should convert the string into a double
System.out.println(arg);
System.out.println(str);
I keep getting errors in line 4, if any of you could help me out here I'll be thankful, i'm kinda new to java and my search for java's equivalent of alof() (its a function in C libraries that converts char[] into a double)lead me to this.

Convert XML string into an abap format date and time

Hi,
Does anyone know of a method or a function module in ABAP which converts XML string into an abap format date and time.
Here is a part of the xml that I want to convert.
<ns2:EventDateTime>2009-07-02T10:13:45+10:00</ns2:EventDateTime>
<ns2:EventMessageTransmissionDateTime>2009-07-02T10:13:45.987+10:00</ns2:EventMessageTransmissionDateTime>
Currently EventDateTime and EventMessageTransmissionDateTime are type XSDDATETIME_Z and these are converted to proper dates and times. We will be changing these fields to a STRING instead of XSDDATETIME_Z. The reason for this is to make the field more versatile. The customer would be receiving dates with Zulu (2009-09-23T12:00:00Z), with offsets (2009-09-23T12:00:00+10:00/-10:00) and just local timestamp (2009-09-23T12:00:00). With this, we need to make the date fields as string
to be able to accept the various date formats (esp. the local timestamp).
I am looking for a standard function module or method that will convert the xml string to a proper date and time abap format.
Would appreciate anyone's help!
Thanks.

How do I convert a string into a decimal

I've been tryin to convert a string into decimal but I can't get it to work at all. I keep getting an exception.
I've tried all of these:
double myDouble = Double.valueOf(string).doubleValue();
int myint = Interger.parseInt(string);
float myfloat = Float.parseFloat(string);
I can't get anything to work.
That string i'm reading in is an array containing values with decimals. ex: -45.09348
All the above work fine if there is no decimal, but fails when it comes to one.
How do I go about doing this?
Thanks!

This works for me:String s = "-45.6789";
double d = Double.parseDouble(s);
System.out.println(d);Mark

Converting a string into mySQL date format

I have a bit of code that collects data values from a bean and I want it to then insert this into a mySQL database. My string is in the format "23/12/1983", how can i put this into a date field in my database? The bit of code I have got so far looks like this...
String month = formHandler.month + "/";
String day = formHandler.day + "/";
String year = formHandler.year ;
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
sb.append(day);
sb.append(month);
sb.append(year);
String myDate = sb.toString();myDate is the value that I want to go into the database

Limo2kz,
The key to inserting a date into a database is to convert the date string into an SQL friendly format. i.e. yyyy-MM-dd.
One way of doing this is as follows:
SimpleDateFormat NICE_DATE_FORMAT =
new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy");
SimpleDateFormat SQL_DATE_FORMAT =
new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
Date date = new Date();
try {
date = NICE_DATE_FORMAT.parse(dateString);
} catch (ParseException pe) {
pe.printStackTrace();
String sqlDate = SQL_DATE_FORMAT.format(date);
Now it is just a matter of creating the insert statement like normal, and making sure that the date string is in quotes.
I hope that helps.

How can I convert a String into boolean?

I am facing difficulty in converting String into boolean.
For example, I have a few variable which i need user to input yes or no as the answer. But I uses string instead. Is there a way which i can ask them to input boolean directly?
Please advise...
credit = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter Yes or No for Credit Satisfactory : ");
System.out.println("The answer for Credit Satisfactory : "+credit);
e_invtry=JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter Yes or No for inventry level");
System.out.println("The answer for Quantity Order : "+e_invtry);
Message was edited by:
SummerCool

Thanks...but I don't get it....I tried to use your
suggestion but i got the message that " cannot find
symbol method
showConfirmDialog(java.lang.String,int)" ???
Please advise.
The code I use was :
int credit = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog("Enter Yes
or No for credit satisfactory",
JOptionPane.YES_NO_OPTION);Well that was not the example I gave you.
JOptionPane has no method showConfirmDialog that receives a String and an int (exactly what the error message is telling you).
What was wrong with the version I showed you?

String a = "e1"
and a method
call(Event e1) that calls the "Event" class with object the name of the string a.
How can I convert the strings name into an object so as to use it in the "call" method?
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

I don't know if this helps you, but you can do things like this.
String a = "com.example.SomeEvent";
//Instantiate com.example.SomeEvent
Object o = Class.forName(a).newInstance();SomeEvent must have a non-argument constructor for this to work.
Class that will be instantiated depens on runtime value of String a, and can be different across different executions of the program.

How to convert a string into a collection of KeyEvents

I'm working on a program that must interact with a 3rd party application (closed to me, I have no access to the code or anything like that). I have been unable to send data to the program by getting its OutputStream. The only thing that has worked was using a Robot object to send individual key events (i.e. robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_A);). Therefore I'm looking to convert a string (many different strings actually) into a collection of their associated KeyEvents so I can send them to the other application. Does anyone know a good way of doing it, or is anyone able to help me with using the OutputStream?
Thank you!
(The 3rd party application is Attachmate InfoConnect, a Unisys terminal emulation program that I have to use to access a mainframe).

Here is a code sample.     public void checknumber(int vsize){
int total;
String anum;
anum = tf2.getText();
validnumber = true;
lines2combine = 1;     //default (an integer)
recs2make = 1;          //default
try{
lines2combine = Integer.parseInt(anum);
catch (NumberFormatException e){
          System.out.println("Entry for lines to combine not numeric");
     validnumber = false;
     d1Title = "Data Entry Error";
     d1Txt = "For number for lines to combine;";
     d2Txt = "Enter a number.";
     doMessage();

I want to convert a String into an array of bytes

I am working with telnet programming with java, where I want to convert login name and password of an online user in 'String' format to 'Bytes', plz help me. Which Input or Output Stream I can use

Assuming you've got the username / password into a String object, you can convert it to a byte[] array using this method.
String.getBytes();
Look at the String API

Hope that helps.

Servlet not inserting into Access Databse. help please

I have setup the ODBC connection on the server, of which I have both IIS and Tomcat running. The form.html that I am accessing is on the tomcat server root and that code is below as well. After hitting the submit button on the form I get forwarded to the servlet, and the page is blank. However, when I open the database, no updates have occured. Please help.

Okay, here is my modified code. However, I catch a sql error. It prints out "sql error". If I try to isolate the different lines of code with try catch blocks, the compiler says it does not recognize the symbols for example stmt, or databaseConnection. Arggh, what can I do? Help please.

public class WebServlet
    extends HttpServlet {

     String jname = (String) request.getParameter("Name");
     String jemail = (String) request.getParameter("Email");
     String jcomments = (String) request.getParameter("Comments");
try
      Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
catch(ClassNotFoundException e)
     out.println("class error");
try

     Statement stmt = databaseConnection.createStatement();
     String sqlInsertString ="INSERT INTO contacts(name,email,comments) VALUES('"+jname+"','"+jemail+"','"+jcomments+"')";
     stmt.executeQuery(sqlInsertString);
