Re: Integer vs. Number vs int



The Java Number class is an abstract class and cannot be instantiated.

public Integer tempNum = new Integer(1);

should work. Or you could simple use the primitive int value such as this.

public int tempNum = 1;

Check out the java documentation and the Number class.

I am trying to put a numeric value into an Number object using:

public Number tempNum = 1;

But I get "incompatible types" on compile.

I'm new to Java but this seems analogous to the Java

public String tempString = "abc";

Which compiles fine.

I get the same "incompatible types" with:

public Integer tempNum = 1;

What am I missing?
