I am trying to cast kx.c
class flip
object to a string:
String test = (String) c.at(flip[0],1)
However I am getting an error stating that I cannot cast C objects to String. Does anyone know what I can cast a kx C object to return a string?
Not too sure what you mean exactly by "C objects" but I assume that it is a char array - the Java type to represent a Kdb string. Here is what you can do:
Object[] data = this.flip.y;
Object[] columnData = (Object[]) data[row];
char[] data = (char[]) columnData[i];
return String.valueOf(data);
If you are trying to retrieve a kdb symbol then it will be a String array.
Object[] data = this.flip.y;
Object[] columnData = (Object[]) data[row];
String data = (String) columnData[i];
return data;
