unable to typecase from webElement to String

[Prabu Elamurugu selvan]

Hi,

When i am type casting from webelement type to string Type i am getting the below error.

Error msg :

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebElement cannot be cast to java.lang.String

at JavaSelenium.TestSelenium.testObj.main(testObj.java:45)

package JavaSelenium.TestSelenium;

import java.util.Iterator;

import java.util.List;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxProfile;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.internal.ProfilesIni;

import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.Select;

public class testObj {

public static void main(String args[]) throws InterruptedException {

// ProfilesIni Prof = new ProfilesIni();

// FirefoxProfile pro = Prof.getProfile("Selenium");

// WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(pro);

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

driver.get("https://indiaproperties.com/");

Thread.sleep(6000);

driver.manage().window().maximize();

WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("DDSrchPropertyType"));

Select select= new Select(element);

List<WebElement> options = select.getOptions();

Iterator it= options.iterator();

String Str;

while (it.hasNext()) {

 Str =  (String) it.next(); // unable to typecast 

System.out.println(it.next());

}

driver.close();

}

}

Please let me know how to resolve this issue.

Thanks

Prabu

The problematic lines are 

 Str =  (String) it.next(); // unable to typecast 

System.out.println(it.next());

You would need to get rid of the type casting that you are doing and instead just resort to using : System.out.println(it.next()); and see if that helps

Thanks & Regards
