This post shows you how to convert String to Float in Java. Let's write a generic code in this post.
Create Generic Converter interface
/**
* Converts objects of S type to T type.
*/
public interface Converter<S, T> {
/**
* Converts the source object from S type to T type.
*
* @param source the object to convert
*
* @return the converted object
*/
T convert(S source);
}
Converts String to Float - StringToFloatConverter.java
Let's implement above Converter interface to convert String to Float in Java
/**
* Converts String to Float.
*/
public class StringToFloatConverter implements Converter<String, Float> {
@Override
public Float convert(String source) {
return Float.valueOf(source);
}
}
