data format of dataPath

gellpro

Hi,

Isn't the format of dataPath String? Although I wrote the following code, but A wasn't called. Why isn't the println("A") called?

String data_path = dataPath("test"); if(data_path == dataPath("test")) { println("A"); } else { println("B"); }

Best regards, gellpro

Check the reference. Don't use ==. Instead, using equals()

String A="ok";
if(A.equals("A")==true) println("True");

final String testPath = dataPath("test");
println( testPath == dataPath("test") ); // false
println( testPath.equals(dataPath("test")) ); // true
exit();
