Re: Auto type conversion

It appears you have to use the class for the static, unlike 1.5's static
imports:

print Math.max(0, qoh)

should work.

The message you were seeing was a little confusing, it was actually saying
that it could not find a method called max with two Integer args on your
script, not on Math.

Subject: [groovy-user] Auto type conversion



I am writing a small script that use the java.Math.max method. The
problem I am having is that groovy insists on transforming  my int to
Integer. Since max doesn't have a prototype for (Integer, Integer)
groovy issues an Exception. How can I force groovy to pass an (int, int)
to max

import java.Math.max;

<snip>

mydb.eachRow ("SELECT * from Items) {
int qoh = it.QtyOnHand.intValue()
print max(0, qoh)             // Exception
}

TIA
