title: Java: Converting a char to a string
body: <p>I have just done this in eclipse:</p>
  
  <pre><code>String firstInput = removeSpaces(myIn.readLine());
  String first = new String(firstInput.charAt(0));
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, eclipse complains that:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The constructor String(char) is
    undefined</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>How do I convert a char to a string then??</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
  
  <h2>EDIT</h2>
  
  <p>I tried the substring method but it didn't work for some reason but gandalf's way works for me just fine! Very straightforward!</p>
