Check type of primitive field

Question

I\'m trying to determine the type of a field on an object. I don\'t know the type of the object when it is passed to me but I need to find fields which are long

Answer 1

You're using the wrong constant to check for Long primitives - use Long.TYPE, each other primitive type can be found with a similarly named constant on the wrapper. eg: Byte.TYPE, Character.TYPE, etc.
