Why Integer.getInteger does not work?

Question

I have the following code:

game.log.fine(\"HERE\" + bestMove.get(\"score\"));
Integer bestScore = Integer.getInteger(bestMove.get(\"score\"));
game.log.fine(         


        

Answer 1

You should use

Integer.parseInt

in your code since

Integer.getInteger

will determine the integer value of the system property with the specified name.

Correct code would be:

Integer bestScore = Integer.parseInt(bestMove.get("score"), 10);

That 10 as the second arguments is the radix. Use it always so your number won't be parsed ambigously.
