Convert String to double in Java
You can use Double.parseDouble()
to convert a String
to a double
:
String text = "12.34"; // example Stringdouble value = Double.parseDouble(text);
For your case it looks like you want:
double total = Double.parseDouble(jlbTotal.getText());double price = Double.parseDouble(jlbPrice.getText());
If you have problems in parsing string to decimal values, you need to replace "," in the number to "."
String number = "123,321";double value = Double.parseDouble( number.replace(",",".") );
To convert a string back into a double, try the following
String s = "10.1";Double d = Double.parseDouble(s);
The parseDouble method will achieve the desired effect, and so will the Double.valueOf() method.
