java tutorial example, DBObject.put(String, int) ?

[Stoph]

Hello everyone!

I am testing out MongoDB, and I noticed on the Java examples page
there is code like this:

BasicDBObject info = new BasicDBObject();
info.put("x", 203);

I do not believe that DBObject.put() supports int for the 2nd
argument. I have no problems using Integer.valueOf(int) in the 2nd
argument.

Anyway, thanks for making this great database,

Chris

I just verified that this works for me.
What error are you getting when you try it?

[Stoph]

Compilation error:

/my_path/MainMethod.java:[24,11] cannot find symbol
symbol : method put(java.lang.String,int)
location: class com.mongodb.BasicDBObject

This is using mongo-0.6.jar from http://github.com/mongodb/mongo-java-driver/downloads

Am I possibly using the wrong driver? I have looked at the code on
github and it only provides a signature for:

put(String, Object)

What version of java?
That's the correct jar...

I'm using Java 6 obtained from the Ubuntu package manager. I'll let
you know if I can figure out why I seem to be the only one
experiencing this so far.

I cannot reproduce this problem on my PC running Windows XP.

Can you do a java -version? Is is possible you're using a weird java version?

That problem you are reporting has to be something wrong with your
JDK. If your JDK is really following Java 6 standards, it should work,
the primitive int type should be automatically boxed to an Integer
object. Your problem definitely is not the mongodb driver.
