Casting a primitive to a custom class

Question

I am trying to do something concerning the primitive char. By itself, one could use

((int)char)

to get the integer value of that character. However, due to the way this is formatted, I cannot do this. Is there a way to allow casting of a certain class, such as CustomInt, and determine which characters turn into what number?

Example:

((int)'A') == 68;
((CustomInt)'A') == 0;

Thanks for the help.

Answer 1

Not possible. Write a method public static CustomInt valueOf(char x) instead.
