How to convert String to CharSequence in Java?

    CharSequence is an interface and String is its one of the implementations other than StringBuilder, StringBuffer and many other.

    So, just as you use InterfaceName i = new ItsImplementation(), you can use CharSequence cs = new String("string") or simply CharSequence cs = "string";

    Attempting to provide some (possible) context for OP's question by posting my own trouble. I'm working in Scala, but the error messages I'm getting all reference Java types, and the error message reads a lot like the compiler complaining that CharSequence is not a String. I confirmed in the source code that String implements the CharSequence interface, but the error message draws attention to the difference between String and CharSequence while hiding the real source of the trouble:

    scala> cols
    res8: Iterable[String] = List(Item, a, b)
    
    scala> val header = String.join(",", cols)
    <console>:13: error: overloaded method value join with alternatives:
      (x$1: CharSequence,x$2: java.lang.Iterable[_ <: CharSequence])String <and>
      (x$1: CharSequence,x$2: CharSequence*)String
     cannot be applied to (String, Iterable[String])
           val header = String.join(",", cols)
    

    I was able to fix this problem with the realization that the problem wasn't String / CharSequence, but rather a mismatch between java.lang.Iterable and Scala's built-in Iterable.

    scala> val header = String.join(",", coll: _*)
    header: String = Item,a,b
    

    My particular problem can also be solved via the answers at Scala: join an iterable of strings

    In summary, OP and others who come across similar problems should parse the error messages very closely and see what other type conversions might be involved.

    Straight answer:

    String s = "Hello World!";
    
    // String => CharSequence conversion:
    
    CharSequence cs = s;  // String is already a CharSequence
    

    CharSequence is an interface, and the String class implements CharSequence.

    You can use

    CharSequence[] cs = String[] {"String to CharSequence"};

    Since String IS-A CharSequence, you can pass a String wherever you need a CharSequence, or assign a String to a CharSequence:

    CharSequence cs = "string";
    String s = cs.toString();
    foo(s); // prints "string"
    
    public void foo(CharSequence cs) { 
      System.out.println(cs);
    }
    

    If you want to convert a CharSequence to a String, just use the toString method that must be implemented by every concrete implementation of CharSequence.

    Hope it helps.
