Parsing an Object into a String

Question

Hi there I am looking to parse an Object I have into a String so that I can enter it's value into a textfield. Here is a little snippet.

TFname is the name of the textfield

Object value = list.getSelectedValues();
TFname.setText(parseObject(value)); //-- Here I pick up an error

Where I pick up the error, I know it's because this isn't how you parse an object but I was wondering if anyone knew how I would go about doing it properly.

If anyone could help I would be very grateful.

Answer 1

String.valueOf(value);

Answer 2

value.toString()

Answer 3

list.getSelectedValues() returns an Array of Objects. Try this code, if it fails, error details wouldbe helpful

Object[] value = list.getSelectedValues();
fName.setText(parseObject(value)); //-- Here I pick up an error

Note: I assume, there is this method in the same class:

String parseObject(Object[] values) {
  // method body
}
