I have a small problem, when an object is returned from a hashtable I don't now the objectype @ compiletime. What I could do is something like: HashTable hash = ... ... Object theObject = Hashtable.get("theKey"); if (theObject.getClass().getName().compareTo("Ljava.lang.String")) { theString = (String)theObject; } else if ( ... ... } else { System.out.println("BOOO, I didn't program the correct object type!"); } Does anyone know a more generic solution? I like to cast the object at runtime! Cheers, Eelco
