How to convert / cast long to String?

Question

I just created sample BB app, which can allow to choose the date.

DateField curDateFld = new DateField(\"Choose Date: \",
  System.currentTimeMillis(), DateF         


        

Answer 1

See the reference documentation for the String class: String s = String.valueOf(date);

If your Long might be null and you don't want to get a 4-letter "null" string, you might use Objects.toString, like: String s = Objects.toString(date, null);

EDIT:

You reverse it using Long l = Long.valueOf(s); but in this direction you need to catch NumberFormatException
