How to check if BigDecimal variable == 0 in java?

Question

I have the following code in Java;

BigDecimal price; // assigned elsewhere

if (price.compareTo(new BigDecimal(\"0.00\")) == 0) {
    return true;
}
<         


        

Answer 1

There is a static constant that represents 0:

BigDecimal.ZERO.equals(selectPrice)

You should do this instead of:

selectPrice.equals(BigDecimal.ZERO)

in order to avoid the case where selectPrice is null.
