I have created a Java bean class like this
class BeanDemo
{
private double value;
//getter and setter
}
class myApp
{
BeanDemo beanDemo=new BeanDemo();
int val=7;
if(val<5)
{
beanDemo.setValue(23.456);
}
double value=beanDemo.getValue(); // Always returns 0.0 if it is not set
System.out.println(value);
}
How can I check if that value is null? I mean if it is not set I should print something else(say null)
I cannot check if its 0.0 because may be i can set the value to 0.0 also.
Thanks
It sounds like you should be using Double
(the class) rather than double
(the primitive). There's no such thing as a null
value of type double
:
class BeanDemo {
private Double value;
public void setValue(Double value) {
this.value = value;
}
public Double getValue() {
return value;
}
}
class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
BeanDemo beanDemo = new BeanDemo();
int val=7;
if (val < 5) {
beanDemo.setValue(23.456);
}
Double value = beanDemo.getValue(); // value will be null
System.out.println(value);
}
}
Note that you could make your setter take double
instead of Double
if you wanted to prevent it from becoming null
again after being set once.
Use Double instead of double, this will do exactly what you want
