An alternative to converting a String to int is using a custom implementation suing the Character.digit() method.

String number = "12345";
int radix = 10;
int result = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < number.length(); i++) {
    char c = number.charAt(i);
    int digit = Character.digit(c, radix);
    result *= radix;
    result += digit;
}
System.out.print(result);

Output

12345

There are many ways to convert a primitive integer to array in Java.

Cast as String

int i = 1234;
char[] chars = ("" + i).toCharArray();

String class

char[] chars = String.valueOf(1234).toCharArray();
