String to Object

[Nicky]

i have a function
insertAtRank(int rank, Object element)

String a = textField1.getText();

what i wanna do is:

insertAtRank(1, a)// but a is a String, i wanna pass it as an Object. anybody know?
Thanx

Every primitive can be wrapped to make an object:

aObj = new String(a);

I think this should work ;-)
