How can I convert a Java HashSet to a primitive int array?

Question

I\'ve got a HashSet with a bunch of Integers in it. I want to turn it into an array, but calling

hashset.toArray();
         


        

Answer 1

Try this. Using java 8.

    Set<Integer> set = new HashSet<>();
    set.add(43);
    set.add(423);
    set.add(11);
    set.add(44);
    set.add(56);
    set.add(422);
    set.add(34);
    int[] arr = set.stream().mapToInt(Integer::intValue).toArray();

Answer 2

public int[] toInt(Set<Integer> set) {
  int[] a = new int[set.size()];
  int i = 0;
  for (Integer val : set) a[i++] = val;
  return a;
}

Now that I wrote the code for you it's not that manual anymore, is it? ;)
