I have a config file beam-template.conf which has different properties like

   `beam.agentsim.agents.rideHail.keepMaxTopNScores = "int | 1"

    beam.agentsim.agents.rideHail.minScoreThresholdForRepositioning = "double | 0.1"`

I am trying to get the properties values like this.

  Configfactory.parseFile(new File(path/beam-template.conf)).entrySet().asScala.foreach { entry =>

    if (!(userConf.hasPathOrNull(entry.getKey))) {

      logString+="nKey= " + entry.getKey + " ,Value= " + entry.getValue.render

    }

}

So the problem is this that the values also include their datatypes like

value = int | 1

value = double | 0.1

I need only the actual values like value = 1 and value = 0.1 instead of including their datatype. So please suggest some solution so that I can remove the datatype from their values

I assume the type of 'int | 1' is String.

Then you can use:

def toValue[A](value: String): A = {

  val valStr = value.split("\|").last.trim()

  (value.split("\|").head.trim() match {

    case "double" => valStr.toDouble

    case "int" => valStr.toInt

    case other => valStr

  }).asInstanceOf[A]

}

println(toValue[Int]("int | 1"))

println(toValue[Double]("double | 1.1"))

println(toValue[String]("hello"))

I updated this to a general function. I also saw that | must be escaped.
