Java String to Object Conversion

In this guide, we will learn how to convert String to Object in Java. Object is a parent class of all the classes in Java so you can simply assign a string to an object to convert it.

Program to Convert String to Object using simple assignment

You can use the assignment operator (=) to simply assign the string to object. Since Object is a parent class of String, it can store the string value.

class JavaExample {
  public static void main(String[] args)
  {
    String str = "BeginnersBook";
    Object obj = str; //assigning string to object

    //the class of the value stored in the Object obj
    System.out.println("Class of the value stored in obj: "
            +obj.getClass().getName());

    System.out.println("The value contained in obj is : "+obj);
  }
}

Output:
