Converting a String that contains decimal to Long

Question

I have following sample (link to ideone).

long lDurationMillis =  0;
lDurationMillis = Long.parseLong(\"30000.1\");
System.out.print(\"Play Duration:\" + lD         


        

Answer 1

Because long can't have fractional part, you could convert it to double and then cast it to long ignoring fractional part
