android - how to convert int to string and place it in a EditText?

Question

I have this piece of code:

ed = (EditText) findViewById (R.id.box);  int x = 10;  ed.setText (x); 

It turns out to be an error. I know I have to change it to string, but how do I do this?

I've tried x.toString(), but it can't be compiled.

Answer 1

Use +, the string concatenation operator:

ed = (EditText) findViewById (R.id.box); int x = 10; ed.setText(""+x); 

or use String.valueOf(int):

ed.setText(String.valueOf(x)); 

or use Integer.toString(int):

ed.setText(Integer.toString(x));
