?

int b = a; // a is already in decimal...

System.out.println(a);

System.out.println(b);

No.

a is already an int.

int a = 0x10;

is identical to

int a = 16;

There's no conversion to be done, as prom already pointed out.

Eh?

Typically "0x34" would mean it's a base-16 number, so the decimal value would be 52, not 34. Was that what you meant?

If so, then strip off the leading "0x" as you're doing and call parseInt, as ****_Adams suggests. That is, if you want an int. If you want an Integer, then use valueOf. Although I suppose autoboxing/unboxing will render the two equivalent here. I'd still use the one whose return type matches what you want to end up with though.
