Using Locale as String to display different page

Question

I have used this line to check the locale.

String local = context.getResources().getConfiguration().locale.getDisplayCountry();
Toast.MakeText(this,local,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

It shows Australia (this is where I am). But I need to display different pages based on locale. so what I have done is

if (local=="Australia")
    runpage1();
else
   runpage2();

But, it doesn't check the local as "Australia", so straight goes to the else line. I tried like

String x;
if (local=="Australia")
     x = "1";
else
   x="2";
 Toast.MakeText(this,x,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

It shows 2. ( I am trying to write to make it as simple as possible, so nobody gets confused with previously asked questions) Can anybody please suggest me why I am being unable to treat locale as String value ? I have tried using this too.

TelephonyManager teleMgr = (TelephonyManager)getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
String myCode = teleMgr.getSimCountryIso();

But, same thing, myCode is also cannot be checked as String. Any suggestions will be great.

Answer 1

== for test only reference..equals() for check String values. So you have to compare like this :

String x;
if (local.trim().equals("Australia"))
     x = "1";
else
   x="2";
 Toast.MakeText(this,x,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
