toString method not found?
« on: August 08, 2011, 12:53:14 pm »
 ??? for some reason when i do String someString = new String(Integer.toString(number));  (being I have a string called 'some string' and an int called 'number) it gives me this error:


Code: [Select]
--------------------Configuration: link generator - JDK version 1.6.0_26 <Default> - <Default>--------------------
C:\Users\user\Desktop\link generator\src\link_generator.java:53: cannot find symbol
symbol  : method toString(javax.swing.JTextField)
location: class java.lang.Integer
String someString = new String(Integer.toString(number));
                                          ^
1 error

Process completed.


This is being used in an applet if that makes a difference.. which it shouldnt

Okay, read the error again, just don't look over it again.  It's not saying it didn't find any toString method, it just didn't find one that took javax.swing.JTextField as a parameter, which apparently number is.
