Hi guys!

So, I have to do a conversion between String and Double object, but my string is a mathematical operation like "100 + 10". Even when I make a conversion using NumberFormat.getInstance of "100 + 10", my result is 100.0 only.

I would like to do it without split my string of way manually.

Someone could help me?

Thanks!

Thank you, using the your keywords I achieved to find a that can help me.

See: http://www.objecthunter.net/tinybo/blog/articles/86

Ps.: I didn't still tested it.

Hugs.

I don't think I much care for that site you link too. Too many spelling
mistakes ("i" and "java") for me to take it seriously.

Parsers aren't hard to write, and often they're used as example in
introductory texts. The C++ Programming Language by Bjarne Stroustrup,
for example, has a complete parser early in the text. Likewise Learning
Java published by O'Reilly whips up a quick algebraic parser for a demo
spreadsheet program.

Is this for a class or something? Usually if you need to evaluate
expressions there's a library that does that for you. It's really kind
of rare to need to do your own.

There is no "eval" function to parse and expressions and perform
arithmetic at compile time. To do that you need a parser or an
interpretive language like JPython.

for general conversion help see
http://mindprod.com/applet/converter.html

You can take that expression apart, with a regex if they are not too
complicated.

Your distribution may already contain a suitable implementation of
javax.script.ScriptEngine:

ScriptEngineManager mgr = new ScriptEngineManager();
List<ScriptEngineFactory> factories = mgr.getEngineFactories();
for (ScriptEngineFactory f : factories) {
System.out.println(f);
}

Selecting the available RhinoScriptEngine by extension

ScriptEngine engine = mgr.getEngineByExtension("js");
try {
System.out.println(engine.eval("5 * 8 + 2"));
} catch (ScriptException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace(System.err);
}

prints the expected answer, 42.0.

wow, sorry for not complying with your orthographical requirements, although imho that's hardly grounds to disregard the library.
maybe this site is more to your liking:
http://www.objecthunter.net/exp4j/
although there are probably some typos in there too
the lib may not be perfect, and i'm sure there are things that can be doneto optimize the implementation, changes i'd be happy to adapt. so take a look at the github project and drop me a line if you have some constructive criticism regarding the implementation.

On the contrary, it's a really reliable bellwether of product quality.

Those who are careless when you're dating are unlikely to be courteous when you're married.

If you cannot even promote a product with professionalism and attention to detail, it is very
unlikely the product will reflect a higher standard.

He already gave you constructive criticism and you acted like a jerk about it. Why would anyone waste
any more time on it?

Another library I tend to favor is OGNL, it will solve your problem
specifically, and is much more powerful. It *is* a programming language
in its own rite, so use with caution (eg, only strings you from trusted
sources).
