How to retrieve JFormattedTextField integer value?

Question

The problem is JFormattedTextField automatically changes the Integer to the formatted Integer (Eg: 5000000 to 5,000,000). With JTextField, I can convert 5000000 to Integer using parseInt(). But how can I do that with JFormattedTextField when it's value is 5,000,000.

Answer 1

Use one of the Format classes in java.text:

String num = "5,000";
DecimalFormat format = new DecimalFormat("#,##0.###");
try {
    System.out.println(format.parse(num).toString()); // prints 5000
} catch (ParseException ex) {
    ...
}

Answer 2

I'm watching Java API for JFormattedTextField and I noted that it has a setFormattedFactory(...) method and I think you can use this method to change the format of retrieved values.

Try to follow the answer to this question to use that method : How to change the format of a JFormattedTextField at runtime?
