Comparing String to String Not Working when the String came from SQLiteDatabase

Question

I\'m retrieving string data from my sqlitedatabase and compare in to my local variable. But its not working. It goes like this codes below.

String hole1 = \"         


        

Answer 1

You shouldn't use == to compare strings. Use string1.equals(string2) instead. Using == compares if the reference to each string is equal whereas .equals() compares the values of the strings

Answer 2

String comp like this would be better

().getSelectedItem().toString().equals(hole);
