Unexpected NumberFormatException while parsing a hex string to an int value

Question

I want to parse an String containing 8 hex-digits (4bytes) but i got an NumberFormatException. What is wrong here?

assertThat(Integer.parseInt(\"FFFF4C6A\",16),i         


        

Answer 1

You've exceeded the range of an integer.

Integer.MAX_VALUE = 2147483647
0xFFFF4C6A = 4294921322

Parsing it as a Long works:

Long.parseLong("FFFF4C6A",16)
