How to loop user input until an integer is inputted?

I'm new to Java and I wanted to keep on asking for user input until the user enters an integer, so that there's no InputMismatchException. I've tried this code, but I still get the exception when I enter a non-integer value.

int getInt(String prompt){
        System.out.print(prompt);
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
        while(!sc.hasNextInt()){
            System.out.println("Enter a whole number.");
            sc.nextInt();
        }
        return sc.nextInt();
}

Thanks for your time!

Take the input using next instead of nextInt. Put a try catch to parse the input using parseInt method. If parsing is successful break the while loop, otherwise continue. Try this:

        System.out.print("input");
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
        while (true) {
            System.out.println("Enter a whole number.");
            String input = sc.next();
            int intInputValue = 0;
            try {
                intInputValue = Integer.parseInt(input);
                System.out.println("Correct input, exit");
                break;
            } catch (NumberFormatException ne) {
                System.out.println("Input is not a number, continue");
            }
        }

Shorter solution. Just take input in sc.next()

 public int getInt(String prompt) {
    Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
    System.out.print(prompt);
    while (!sc.hasNextInt()) {
        System.out.println("Enter a whole number");
        sc.next();
    }
    return sc.nextInt();

}

Working on Juned's code, I was able to make it shorter.

int getInt(String prompt) {
    System.out.print(prompt);
    while(true){
        try {
            return Integer.parseInt(new Scanner(System.in).next());
        } catch(NumberFormatException ne) {
            System.out.print("That's not a whole number.\n"+prompt);
        }
    }
}

Keep gently scanning while you still have input, and check if it's indeed integer, as you need:

String s = "This is not yet number 10"; 
  
        // create a new scanner 
        // with the specified String Object 
        Scanner scanner = new Scanner(s); 
  
        while (scanner.hasNext()) { 
  
            // if the next is a Int, 
            // print found and the Int 
            if (scanner.hasNextInt()) { 
                System.out.println("Found Int value :"
                                   + scanner.nextInt()); 
            } 
  
            // if no Int is found, 
            // print "Not Found:" and the token 
            else { 
                System.out.println("Not found Int value :"
                                   + scanner.next()); 
            } 
        } 
        scanner.close();
