TYPE
The java.lang.Class that represents this class.
Public Constructors
public
Short(String string)
Constructs a new instance of this class given a string.
Parameters
string
| a string representation of a short quantity. |
public
Short(short value)
Constructs a new instance of the receiver which represents the short
valued argument.
Parameters
value
| the short to store in the new instance.
|
Public Methods
public
byte
byteValue()
Returns the byte value which the receiver represents
Returns
- byte the value of the receiver.
public
int
compareTo(Short object)
Compares this Short
to the Short
passed. If this instance's value is equal to the value of the instance
passed, then 0 is returned. If this instance's value is less than the
value of the instance passed, then a negative value is returned. If this
instance's value is greater than the value of the instance passed, then a
positive value is returned.
Parameters
object
| The instance to compare to. |
public
static
Short
decode(String string)
Parses the string argument as if it was a short value and returns the
result. Throws NumberFormatException if the string does not represent an
int quantity. The string may be a hexadecimal ("0x..."), octal ("0..."),
or decimal ("...") representation of a byte.
Parameters
string
| a string representation of a short quantity. |
Returns
- Short the value represented by the argument
public
double
doubleValue()
Returns the double value which the receiver represents
Returns
- double the value of the receiver.
public
boolean
equals(Object object)
Compares the argument to the receiver, and returns true if they represent
the
same object using a class specific comparison.
In this case, the argument must also be a Short, and the receiver and
argument must represent the same short value.
Parameters
object
| the object to compare with this object |
Returns
true
if the object is the same as this object
false
if it is different from this object
public
float
floatValue()
Returns the float value which the receiver represents
Returns
- float the value of the receiver.
public
int
hashCode()
Returns an integer hash code for the receiver. Any two objects which
answer
true
when passed to
equals
must
answer the same value for this method.
public
int
intValue()
Returns the int value which the receiver represents
Returns
- int the value of the receiver.
public
long
longValue()
Returns the long value which the receiver represents
Returns
- long the value of the receiver.
public
static
short
parseShort(String string)
Parses the string argument as if it was a short value and returns the
result. Throws NumberFormatException if the string does not represent an
short quantity.
Parameters
string
| a string representation of a short quantity. |
Returns
- short the value represented by the argument
public
static
short
parseShort(String string, int radix)
Parses the string argument as if it was a short value and returns the
result. Throws NumberFormatException if the string does not represent a
single short quantity. The second argument specifies the radix to use
when parsing the value.
Parameters
string
| a string representation of a short quantity. |
radix
| the radix to use when parsing. |
Returns
- short the value represented by the argument
public
static
short
reverseBytes(short s)
Reverses the bytes of a short
.
public
short
shortValue()
Returns the short value which the receiver represents
Returns
- short the value of the receiver.
public
static
String
toString(short value)
Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of the
argument.
Parameters
value
| short the short to convert. |
Returns
- String a printable representation for the short.
public
String
toString()
Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of the
receiver.
Returns
- a printable representation for the receiver.
public
static
Short
valueOf(String string, int radix)
Parses the string argument as if it was a short value and returns a Short
representing the result. Throws NumberFormatException if the string does
not represent a short quantity. The second argument specifies the radix
to use when parsing the value.
Parameters
string
| a string representation of a short quantity. |
radix
| the radix to use when parsing. |
Returns
- Short the value represented by the argument
public
static
Short
valueOf(String string)
Parses the string argument as if it was a short value and returns a Short
representing the result. Throws NumberFormatException if the string does
not represent a single short quantity.
Parameters
string
| a string representation of a short quantity. |
Returns
- Short the value represented by the argument
public
static
Short
valueOf(short s)
Returns a Short
instance for the short
value passed. This method is preferred over the constructor, as this
method may maintain a cache of instances.
