problems with Float.parseFloat()
Hi,
I am writing a pgm in which I need to calculate the total proce of all
the products selected by the user on the GUI.but then I am using IBM JDK
1.1.7 ,,,so I am getting an error with
Float.parseFloat() method, I think the method is not existing in the jdk1.1.7
API, but then I dont know how to slove the problem, I am giving the code
below for the program, could anyone have a look at it and solve my problem....

Re: problems with Float.parseFloat()
The pre-Java-2 version of this is "Float.valueOf(totalval)", which converts
the String to a Float. If you want a float instead of a Float, use
"Float.valueOf(totalval).floatValue()".
But allow me to suggest an simpler method:
float curprice = ...;
float totalval = 0.0;
session.putValue("total.cost", new Float(totalval + curprice));
The second parameter of putValue() takes an Object. You aren't limited to
using a String there.
