Java have a int value using setText

Question

I\'m trying to set an int value using jTextField and the setText method. But of course setText wants a String. How do I get round this? I\'ll give you a snippet of the code:

Answer 1

Normal ways would be

seatsTF.setText(Integer.toString(e.getNoOfSeats()));

or

seatsTF.setText(String.valueOf(e.getNoOfSeats()));

but, this can be achieved with a concatenation like this:

seatsTF.setText("" + e.getNoOfSeats());
