Convert from Object to Original Class

Question

I\'m storing a instance of Entry class in an Object.

Entry newentry = new Entry(j, 0.0);
Object test = newentry;

Answer 1

First answer:

Change the datatype of test from Object to Entry in your example.

Second answer:

If you really need to assign it to an object (in this case, a variable called "test") somewhere along the way (for some reason) then you can do this to get it back:

Object val = ((Entry)test).getValue();
