Question

I am using Bonita Api Java docs(Bonita Api) to get the instanceUUID of process and get the instanceUUID of type ProcessInstanceUUID.using getValue(), i am convert the object value in string and send another java class where i want to typecast String into ProcessInstanceUUID class object type.

it is possible,if possible please give me some idea to solve this problem.

ProcessInstanceUUID instanceUUID = this.getProcessInstanceUUID();
instanceUUIDValue = instanceUUID.getValue();

Thanks

From the API:

ProcessInstanceUUID instanceUUID = this.getProcessInstanceUUID()
String instanceUUIDValue = instanceUUID.getValue();
ProcessInstanceUUID newUUID = new ProcessInstanceUUID(instanceUUIDValue);

As @Nivas said, this is not typecasting. Here is an example of type casting:

Object obj1 = "Hello World"; // obj1 is in fact a String
Object obj2 = new Integer(2); // obj2 is an Integer
String myString1 = (String) obj1; // explicitly type cast an Object to String
// The next statement will throw an exception at runtime because obj2 is not a String
String myString2 = (String) obj2;
