9. parseInt(String) or Integer.valueOf(s).intValue    coderanch.com

OK, It's not 10am and I haven't had my first coffee of the morning but...

14. Integer.valueOf( int i ) vs. Integer.valueOf( String s )?    forums.oracle.com

an inspection of the implementation ( 1.6.0_04 ) indicates that valueOf( int i ) and valueOf( String s ) differ in an interesting way. the former attempts to return an Integer from the internal cache, while the latter always constructs a new Integer after parsing. naively, one might expect valueOf( String s ) to parse to a primitive, then invoke valueOf( ...
