Byte class longValue() method
- longValue() method is available in java.lang package.
- longValue() method is used to return the value denoted by this Byte object converted to type long (by casting).
- longValue() method is a non-static method, it is accessible with the class object only and if we try to access the method with the class name then we will get an error.
- longValue() method does not throw an exception at the time of conversion from Byte to long.
Syntax
public long longValue();
Parameter2
- It does not accept any parameter.
Return Value
The return type of this method is long, it returns a converted (from type byte to long) value represented by this Byte object.
Example
// Java program to demonstrate the example
// of longValue() method of Byte class
public class LongValueOfByteClass {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Variables initialization
byte b1 = 20;
byte b2 = 30;
// It returns byte value denoted by this Byte ob1 object
// and converted to a long by calling ob1.longValue()
Byte ob1 = new Byte(b1);
// Display ob1 result
System.out.println("ob1.longValue(): " + ob1.longValue());
// It returns byte value denoted by this Byte ob2 object
// and converted to a long by calling ob2.longValue()
Byte ob2 = new Byte(b2);
// Display ob2 result
System.out.println("ob2.longValue(): " + ob2.longValue());
}
}
Output
ob1.longValue(): 20
ob2.longValue(): 30
