How do I compare strings in Java? (23 answers)

Closed 9 years ago.

I've been having this problem.. I read with HSSF xls cell (which value is lets say "turbox" value this way:

 String hssfstanskup = sheet.getRow(p).getCell(3).getStringCellValue();

then, I create a row in my JTablel like this:

 model.addRow(new Object[] { hssfstanskup } );

but if I create if statement like this:

 if((String) tprojekty.getValueAt(0,1) == "xxx"){

it doesnot work...

extra info: tprojekty = new JTable(model); can anyone help me with this? thanks in advance!

Answer 1

If I am not wrong, you have to use the .equals() instead of ==

if((String) tprojekty.getValueAt(0,1).equals("xxx")) {

Answer 2

In order to compare strings in java you use the .equals() method instead of ==.

Please try:

if((String) tprojekty.getValueAt(0,1).equals("xxx"))

which should solve your problem! The answer for this could have been found though with a simple Google search, or checking previous posts on StackOverflow! So in future take a look around for a solution before you post a question.
