In Objective-C we have a generic type for objects called "id".
id someObject = someValue;
if([someObject isKindOfClass:[NSString class]]) {
NSString *string = someObject;
}
I want to know if there's something like that in Java.
id someObject = someValue;
if(someObject instanceof String) {
String string = someObject;
}
Unless I'm missing something, you were very close to the answer yourself:
// obtain your object from somewhere
Object someObject = obtainObjectInstance();
// if it's a string...
if(someObject instanceof String) {
// cast and assign to some variable
String string = (String)someObject;
}
As a side note, all object instances contain information about the object's class: someObject.getClass()
