try:

(bind ?x (call Integer parseInt "25"))

Subject: JESS: Convert a string to integer


Hi all,

This might seem silly but I **really** cannot figure this one out.

Is there a jess command/function to convert a string to an integer?

ex >(bind ?x "25")

I need to be able to convert the string "25" to an integer to be
able to do some comparisons.
ex (a ?x&:(= ?x 25))

I looked up the function list and found 2 functions:
1. (integer <numeric-expression>) -> but this needs a numeric
expression
2. (long <expression>) Longs in Jess are "second class citizens"
in the sense that you ** can't directly do math ** on them.

Thanks in advance.
