How can I check if a value is of type Integer?

If you have a double/float/floating point number and want to see if it’s an integer.

public boolean isDoubleInt(double d)
{
    //select a "tolerance range" for being an integer
    double TOLERANCE = 1E-5;
    //do not use (int)d, due to weird floating point conversions!
    return Math.abs(Math.floor(d) - d) < TOLERANCE;
}

If you have a string and want to see if it’s an integer. Preferably, don’t throw out the Integer.valueOf() result:

public boolean isStringInt(String s)
{
    try
    {
        Integer.parseInt(s);
        return true;
    } catch (NumberFormatException ex)
    {
        return false;
    }
}

If you want to see if something is an Integer object (and hence wraps an int):

public boolean isObjectInteger(Object o)
{
    return o instanceof Integer;
}
