Compare string and string from db

I successfully queried a field from mysql into a jcombobox.
What I can't figure out is why:
String fromDB = comboBox.getSelectedItem().trim();
AND
String newString = "sameStringFromMySQL";are not equal. I already trimmed the text from the combo box but they are still not considered equal.
WHY???

just like how i described above.
(fromDB.equals(newString)) returns false.
Then they are not equal.
Most likely reasons:
-fromDB: This is starting with the text you think.
-fromDB: You aren't getting it from the right place.
-fromDB: You are modifying it before it gets to the comparison.
-NewString: Doesn't have the value you think.
-The comparison above isn't really the problem.
You can always print the bytes in any string by using the getBytes() method on String and printing out both strings just before the above comparison (not elsewhere.)

STARTED IT, BUT STILL NEED HELP -- INPUTTTING CHARACTERS FROM LOADED FILE INTO TABLE, SELECTING STRINGS FROM TABLE AND PLACING IN NEW TABLE, SAVING NEW TABLE TO SPREADSHEET FILE

I AM TRYING TO IMPORT CHARACTERS FROM A TAB DELIMITED FILE INTO A TABLE ON LABVIEW. ONCE THE DATA IS IN THE TABLE I WANT TO BE ABLE TO SELECT INDIVIDUAL STRINGS FROM THE TABLE AND PLACE IT IN A NEW TABLE. WHEN I CLICK ON A STRING I WOULD LIKE THE SELECTED STRING TO SHOW IN A TEXT BOX LABELED 'SELECTED STEP' AFTER ALL THE SELECTED STRINGS IS IN THE TABLE I WOULD LIKE TO SAVE THE NEW TABLE AS ANOTHER SPREADSHEET -- TAB DELIMITED -- FILE, MAKING IT ACCESSIBLE TO OPEN. HERE IS WHAT I HAVE SO FAR. I CAN INPUT DATA INTO THE TABLE, BUT I CAN ONLY TRANSFER ONE STRING INTO THE TABLE I WOULD LIKE TO BE TO INPUT MULTIPLE STRINGS. ALSO WHENEVER I TRY SAVING THE FILE, IT ALWAYS SAVES A UNKNOWN FILE, HOW CAN I GET IT TO SAVE AS A SPREADSHEET FILE. THANKING ALL OF YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP!!!!!!

Pondered,
The question you are asking is the same one that you asked in: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=132508#M132508, to which I supplied a revised version of the original vi you used (which was modified from the original one I supplied to an earlier thread). A couple of questions: 1) What does my latest not do that is in your question, 2) Why are you starting yet another thread about the same problem? We are here trying to help, it makes it a lot easier if you keep the same problem in the same thread, it reduces duplication of effort from those that might not have been following the previous thread(s). Those of us that don't have our "names in blue" are just doing this "for fun" (the blue names are NI employees, who may still be doing it "for fun"), and it makes it more fun if it doesn't seem (correctly or not) that our attempts are ignored. If an answer doesn't help, or seems incomplete, post a little more detail to the same thread so that the original respondent, or someone new, can provide more information, or understand your problem better.

How to design and implement an application that reads a string from the ...

How to design and implement an application that reads a string from the user and prints it one character per line???

This is so trivial that it barely deserves the words "design" or "application".
You can use java.util.Scanner to get user input from the command line.
You can use String.getChars to convert a String into an array of characters.
You can use a loop to get all the characters individually.
You can use System.out.println to print data on its own line.
Good luck on your homework.

Match string and retrieve part of string from match

Hi,
I'm trying to parse a html-page to retrieve a certain value.
The string should match some pattern. Then I want to retrieve a part of the string from the match. In my example case: XXX.
String string2Match = " <input type=\"text\" name=\"match\" value=\"XXX\" ";
String regex = ".*<input type=\"text\" name=\"match\" value=\"\\w*\".*";
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(regex);
Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(string2Match);
if (matcher.matches()) {
// in this case I want to retrieve a part of the string from the match. here: XXX.
}Can this be done, without parsing the matcher.group()-findings again.
Thanks
Jonny

You will end up by something like:Matcher matcher = Pattern.compile("[a-z]{2}(\\d+)(.*)").matcher("ab1234xy56");
assertEquals("ab1234xy56",matcher.group(0));
assertEquals("1234",matcher.group(1));

Take and delete a String from another String

I have original input string= 111100001111
I need to Take for example the least 4 bits .... Output= 1111
and to be removed from the original input string so the original input string= 11110000
I am trying to make a generic one but the point is that I can not delete subset that I take from the original input String.
How can I take and delete from a string in the same time?

Hello i need a help about script to export translatable text strings from ai files and import them back after editing, thanks in advance

Lanny -
Thank you for taking the time to help with this problem. Can I just say however that as someone who has posted a first comment here and quite clearly never used a forum like this before, your comment unfortunately comes across as very excluding. It makes me feel there are a set of unwritten rules that I should know, and that I don't know them shows that the forum is not for me. In short, it's exactly the kind of response that stops people like me using forums like this.
I'm sure it's not intended to be received like this and I am sure that the way you have responded is quite normal in the rules of a forum like this. However, it is not normal for those of us who aren't familiar with forums and who only encounter them when they have a genuine problem. This is why I hope it is helpful to respond in full.
The reason I posted here is as follows. I was directed here by the apple support website. The original comment seemed to be the only one I could find which referred to my issue. As there is no obvious guidance on how to post on a forum like this it seemed perfectly reasonable to try and join in a conversation which might solve more than one problem at once.
Bee's reply however is both helpful and warm. This could in fact be a template for how new members should be welcomed and inducted into the rules of the forum in a friendly and inclusive way. Thank you very much indeed Bee!

How to get string (specified by line and column) from txt file with labview

Hi everyone
How to get string (specified by line and column) from txt file with labview
thx
Solved!
Go to Solution.

As far as I know, a text file has no columns. Please be more specific. Do you mean something like the 5th word on line 4, where words are separated by a space, and lines are separated by a newline character? You could the Read from Spreadsheet String function and set the delimiter to a space. This will produce a 2D array of strings. Then use index array and give the line number and column number.

Day of year bug - format date/time string and scan from string?

I've noticed that the day of year returned by "Format Date/Time String.vi" starts with a value of 1 for Jan-1 while "Scan from String.vi" wants a 0 index. Is this a bug or feature?
(I'm using Labview 2010 Service Pack 1)

I think the best idea is to use seconds since for your arithmetic, because it is going to be the most consistent and robust solution. Knowing that a day has 86400 seconds is all that is needed and you won't run in possible inconsistencies with date time implementations caused by our anything but logic calender. I would hazard that the functionality of converting a timestamp into year and day of year and back is impossible to make consistent without sacrificing other possibly conflicting transformation in the Timestamp into String and Timestamp from String manipulations.
"Seconds since" being the actual base unit in all LabVIEW timestamps, it is best to do any arithmetic on it in this base unit.

Comparing string in select query

Hi,
select single *
 from mara
 where matnr = wa-matnr.
Here matnr is char18. Can we compare string like this?
When wa-matnr is in lower case it is setting sy-subrc = 4, even though the matnr exists in mara. When converted to upper case and used it is setting sy-subrc = 0.
Is there any other solution for the problem? I have checked out with matnr's conversion routine. It is also not working.

just try dat way...
ex...
data:wa_matnr like mara-matnr.
data:wa_matnr1 like mara-matnr.
data: gv_matnr like mara-matnr.
wa_matnr = 'comptest'.
CALL FUNCTION 'TERM_TRANSLATE_TO_UPPER_CASE'
EXPORTING
 LANGU = SY-LANGU
 TEXT = wa_matnr
IMPORTING
 TEXT_UC = wa_matnr1
EXCEPTIONS
NO_LOCALE_AVAILABLE = 1
OTHERS = 2
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
 WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
select single matnr
from mara into gv_matnr
where matnr = wa_matnr or matnr = wa_matnr1.
write : gv_matnr.

Compare Strings using JSTL

How can I compare strings with JSTL? One string is a stored date and the other is a generated date. My goal is to set the correct date in a dropdown menu with date values (yyyy-MM-dd) by comparing the current date with the stored.
Code
<%
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(timezone, locale);
Format fm = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
String date2 = (String) fm.format(cal.getTime()); %>
<c:set var="date1" value="${mb.date}" /> // from database lookup (MySQL Date)
<c:out value="${date1}"/>=<%=date2%>:<c:out value="${date1 == '<%=date2%>' }" />The result is:
2004-08-03 = 2004-08-03 : false

well, about this:
<%
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(timezone, locale);
Format fm = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
String date2 = (String) fm.format(cal.getTime());
pageContext.setAttribute("date2",date2);
%>
<c:set var="date1" value="${mb.date}" /> // from database lookup (MySQL Date)
<c:out value="${date1}"/> .equals <%=date2%>:<c:out value="${date1eq date2}" />I try to use the EL 'eq' like you would use '.equals()' in regular java, and EL '==' like regular java '==' And since we are comparing Strings here, which are objects, we would use .equals rather than ==, since == compares refernce and .equals compares value...

How come the JRE uses == to compare Strings?

I was looking through the source of javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicComboBoxUI and came across this:        public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent e) {
            String propertyName = e.getPropertyName();
         JComboBox comboBox = (JComboBox)e.getSource();
            if ( propertyName == "model" ) {
            else if ( propertyName == "editor" && comboBox.isEditable() ) {
            else if ( propertyName == "editable" ) {
            else if ( propertyName == "enabled" ) {
            else if ( propertyName == "focusable" ) {
            else if ( propertyName == "maximumRowCount" ) {
            else if ( propertyName == "font" ) {
            else if ( propertyName == JComponent.TOOL_TIP_TEXT_KEY ) {
            else if ( propertyName == BasicComboBoxUI.IS_TABLE_CELL_EDITOR ) {
         else if (propertyName == "prototypeDisplayValue") {
         else if (propertyName == "renderer") {
        }So
1) Is there a valid reason for the developer to have used == instead of .equals(...) to compare Strings?
2) How does the code work consistently with this anomaly?
Similar use of == and not .equals(...) is seen in many other swing classes.
Doesn't affect me, but I would be interested to know if anyone can throw some light on this.
Thanks, Darryl

Darryl.Burke wrote:
DeltaGeek, thank you for your response.
Paul, I think I understand what you are saying, but the String reference propertyNamein this case comes from e.getPropertyName() from the PropertyChangeEvent class, not from within the BasicComboBoxUI class.
I gather that all loaded classes share the same String pool, and that's how this works correctly. But in that case any comparison of a String variable to a literal String using == should also work.
Then why the brouhaha about never using == to compare Strings?The key thing here is that the String returned by getPropertyName() must have come from a String literal. For example, in javax.swing.JComboBox:
firePropertyChange( "maximumRowCount", oldCount, maximumRowCount );This string literal will be the same instance as the string literal in the code you posted.
If they had instead done something like
String s = "RowCount";
boolean isMaximum = true;
firePropertyChange((isMaximum ? "maximum" : "minimum") + s, oldCount, maximumRowCount );In this case, the String literal "maximumRowCount" is not used, but rather created from a concatenation at runtime, so it's likely that the comparison would fail.
Note that the following would be the same String literal because this concatenation would be done at compile-time, not runtime:
"maximum" + "RowCount"As for why, I agree with DeltaGeek: performance.

How we get all string from substring,.,.

Hi,
I am doing one application . In that i have to enter substrubg in search user inputfield and then i click on search . Not i want to show all user which contain that substring . So please guide in that.
Example...
Like i am writing "ab*" then all users comes which contain ab substring.
Regards,
Gurprit Bhatia

Hi,
Try this logic.
String searchString="ab*";
searchString=searchString.subString(0,searchString.length-2);
String[] matchedArray=new matchedArray(100);
int j=0;
//Let your compare strings be in an array strArray
for(int i=0;i<strArray.length;i++){
String temp=strArray.subString(0,searchString.length-2);
if(temp.equals(searchString)){
matchedArray[j]=strArray;
j++;
Then display the matched String array.
Hope it helps.

Returning strings from OLE2 Word object (Forms 4.5)

Below is an example of how to return string and numeric values from OLE2 objects. In this example the OLE2 object is a MS Word document, and I want to fetch all the bookmarks in the Document into a Forms 4.5 Varchar2. To do this I first need to get the count of bookmarks.
Getting a string property from an OLE2 object is a common OLE2 requirement but is poorly documented. This is the ONLY way it can be done, as OLE2.INVOKE_CHAR returns a single character not a string. Use OLE2.INVOKE_OBJ, then OLE2.GET_CHAR_PROPERTY which does return a string, as shown below, to return a string from an OLE object (or OLE property).
Also note how you can only get the child object from its parent, not the grandchild (etc) object, so multiple (cascading) GET_OBJ_PROPERTY calls are required.
/* by: Marcus Anderson (Anderson Digital) (MarcusAnderson.info) */
/* name: Get_Bookmarks */
/* desc: Returns a double quoted CSV string containing the document*/
/* bookmarks. CSV string will always contain a trailing comma*/
/* EG: "Bookmark1","Bookmark2",Bookmark3",Bookmark4", */
/*               NB: This requires that Bookmarks cannot contain " chr */

v_Bookmarks := OLE2.GET_OBJ_PROPERTY (v_ActiveDoc , 'Bookmarks');
v_num := OLE2.GET_NUM_PROPERTY (v_Bookmarks, 'Count'); -- NB: Returns numeric property

FOR v_i in 1..v_num LOOP
                    /* Set v_item = ActiveDocument.Bookmarks.Item(v_i) */

OLE2.ADD_ARG (v_arglist, v_i);
v_Item := OLE2.INVOKE_OBJ (v_Bookmarks, 'Item', v_arglist); -- NB: returns parent object (array element)
OLE2.DESTROY_ARGLIST (v_arglist);

v_text := OLE2.GET_CHAR_PROPERTY (v_Item, 'Name');                    -- NB: Returns string/varchar2 property
