java.lang.Integer (JDK 1.0)

This class provides an immutable object wrapper around the int primitive data type. This class also contains useful minimum and maximum constants and useful conversion methods. parseInt() and valueOf() convert a string to an int or to an Integer, respectively. Each can take a radix argument to specify the base that the value is represented in. decode() also converts a String to an Integer. It assumes a hexadecimal number if the string begins with "0X" or "0x," or an octal number if the string begins with "0". Otherwise, a decimal number is assumed.

toString() converts in the other direction, and the static version takes a radix argument. toBinaryString(), toOctalString(), and toHexString() convert an int to a string using base 2, base 8, and base 16. These methods treat the integer as an unsigned value.

Other routines return the value of an Integer as various primitive types, and finally, the getInteger() methods return the integer value of a named property from the system property list or the specified default value.
