The?operator?*?is?undefined?for?the?argument?

2005-06-17 01:51

I declared two variables of type Java.lang.Double.

 

When I try to do this in Variable Express

 

$V{Profit} * 100

 

it gives me the "The?operator?*?is?undefined?for?the?argument?type(s)" error.

 

I have also tried

 

$V{Profit} * 100.00

$V{Profit} * (new Double(100.00))

 

I have tried Java 1.4.2 and now using Java 5.0.30.7

 

Please help!

You need to convert to double (and then back to Double)

i.e.

new Double($V{profit}.doubleValue() * 100)

or something like that.
