What's the "Not Equal To" equivalent of equals( ) ?

Hi,
I'm trying to compare strings but my logic needs to check if one string is NOT EQUAL TO another, the opposite of equals( ). I believe I cannot use != because these are strings and not numeric data types. I can't find the answer in any of my Java books or on this forum. Surely, someone can help me!
Thanks in Advance,

uh, to make this work you would have to type
if(str.equals("whatever") == false)
otherwise you will get errorsthats like writing
boolean value = true;
if (value == true){
    //do something
}//if

    AND nullable = 'N'

  • What are the notes of the Smart Guitar?

    When I open iOS GarageBand's Smart Guitar on Key C-Major, what are the notes I'm seeing? For instance, what are the notes when I tap the C chord string from 1 (bottom) to 6 (up)?
    My actual goal is to record all string tap sounds, cut them into respective pieces in Audacity, then save them as e.g. "C.wav", for further use in another context. I like how GarageBand lays out the chords so my small (noncommercial) program aims to copy this, albeit I'm not a professional musician (as you can see from my question, I'm sure!).
    Thanks!

  • What are the users exception-list equivalent in deployment rules?

    Our users run a webapp that runs fine when the url is placed in the exception list, but I am experiencing difficulties getting it to run with deployment ruleset. I know the ruleset works, as it works on other apps.
    What is the equivalent setting in the deployment ruleset?
    This does not work:
    <rule>
    <id location="https://test.example.com" />
    <action permission="run"/>
    </rule>
    So what action should I apply to make it the equivalent of the exception list? "Default"?

  • What is the Notes font?

    I'm curious what the font is that's in the Notes and SMS messaging. Is this font found anywhere on an iMac like in Microsoft Word or just anywhere else? Thanks

    It's called Marker Felt Thin, and it's already installed on your Mac. You can verify that by opening up the Font Book application in your Applications folder.

  • What is the BOXI 3 SP2 equivalent for ReportDocument and ParameterValues?

    I need to convert code from BOXI to BOXI 3 SP2.
    What is the BOXI 3 version of BOXI crystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument?
    What is the BOXI 3 version of BOXI CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValues?
    I'm a newbie in business objects, so any help would be appreciated.

    The ReportDocument SDK hasn't undergone huge changes between XI and XI3.1. You should have the Developer edition of Crystal Reports 2008 installed on your dev machine, after the installation of Visual Studio. Apply the latest service pack (it's necessary to patch to at least SP1 if you want to do anything that hooks into Enterprise). Check your project references to make sure they're the right version (12.x). Recompile and see if you get any errors.

  • What is the not added folder for?

    I coverted my flash video files and installed in the Automatic Add to Itunes and some were added into a folder "Not Added"

    Hi Anders
    Thanks for the reply.
    Unfortunately our Exchange connector does seem to be processing emails from addresses which are NOT in the CMDB. I've checked to make sure that there IS a tick in the box to only process emails if the address IS in the CMDB, but it's still happening.
    I've tried from a couple of different external email addresses and the email is processed, and then deleted, but sometimes a call is logged with a blank user, and sometimes it doesn't get logged at all but still the original email is deleted. It all seems
    a little hit and miss really......what I'd like is for the emails from unknown users to be just left as they are, so that we can go in and deal with them appropriately. I'm assuming that this the default behaviour, so maybe it just needs to be reinstalled...unless
    anyone else has any other ideas?
    regards
    Paul

  • HT4191 what if the notes option in Outlook mail doesn't even show up?

    i'm connecting to Exchange via port 443 on an iPhone 5 ios 6.0.2
    i only have the option to sync Mail, Calendar, contacts, and Tasks, but notes option is missing
    i have nothing in my iphone notes, but lots of items in my outlook notes.
    things i've tried:
    removing all notes and creating 1 new note in outlook

    You should check with whomever is running your Exchange serve that the option to sync Outlook notes is enabled.  If so, you should have the option to sync your notes.  If you don't try, removing and re-adding the Exchange account.

  • What does the note "IP Configuration" mean to me?

    every now and then a small window appears with a red exclamation.IP Configuration with some numbers afterwards.

    Sounds like you may have an extension installed that notifies you when your IP Address changes or something like that.

  • What is the equivalent Windows laptop?

    What's the best Windows laptop equivalent to the MBP 15.4"? My vote goes to the Thinkpad T60p.

    sigh
    He asked what's the equivalent. When people ask for the "equivalent", they mean comparable hardware at a similar price. Most techies (who are what Apple's trying to court right now) will want to see similar specs, maybe compare weights, size, etc. We don't really care about immeasurable things like "design" and relatively useless stuff like the "patent pending magnetic power connector" (I have never, ever tripped over my laptops' wires. Neither has my family. And over the course of the last 10 years I've owned 6 laptops).
    As for trying to compare, if you honestly don't know what you're talking about, please don't speak. Dual Athlons are not the equivalent of an Intel Core Duo. Dual Athlons are a lot faster and guzzle tremendous amounts of energy. If you want to make a valid comparison, look at the Inspiron 9300 with Core Duo and a similar video card.
    Please don't let the reality distortion field and marketingspeak affect what you say to others. This is a big year for Apple to court us geeks, and we really, REALLY don't like the reality distortion field and marketingspeak. Just give us specs and benchmarks. Thanks.

  • Does the Note 4 have better signal strength than the Note 3?

    I have a note 3 that continually drops calls and bounces from 4 bars to 1 bar over the course of time with the phone being stationary.  I believe my problems started with the last software update (as documented in numerous forums) but both Verizon and Samsung give no credibility to problems raised on internet forums.  The people on these forums apparently "lack technical expertise" was my take on their explanation. 
    So far they, Verizon, is following exactly the same course of action to try to correct my issues as other folks have stated they tried with tech support.  Replacement of the SIM card did nothing.  Software reflash is next followed by a factory reset with no additional apps allowed to download to the phone. 
    I have not looked at a Note 4 nor do I know anyone that has one so I am reaching out for information.  What is the Note 4 running for software and if you owned a Note 3 previously did you experience signal strength issues where you felt you shouldn't have?  If you had, or have, weak signal strength were you able to compare it to another android phone on the same carrier to see if the problem was specific to you phone?
    I understand the bars are not the best indication of signal strength but they are a quick indication.  Under the mobile networks I usually have -100+ dBm and 30 +asu.  If it is a software caused problem neither Verizon or Samsung knows anything about it which is good news because they should be able to correct it.  I have my doubts the people on the forums are the crackpots they make them out to be.  I suggested they are people like me who are desperate for help with a problem Verizon gave up on. 
    If the Note 4 is better I know what to ask for when they hit the end of the road with me.  That will happen software and reset wise in the next week then I am off to "getting someone else's problem phone" sent to me for a swap.  Last time they tried this the junk phone they sent didn't even recognize the sim card! 
    Thanks for any facts you can provide about your experience with the Note 3 and Note 4 as related to signal strength in both areas with strong and marginal service.

    I have an iPhone 6 on Sprint for work and it stinks, I don't like the service or the phone.  Had an iPhone 5s prior and although I didn't care for it it was still better than the 6.
    I had a software reflash done at Best Buy and a factory reset at Wireless world.  Reflash went smooth but I should have done the factory reset myself or had Best Buy do it.  It will take me days to get the phone back to where I had it.  Kies software from Samsung does backup the phone but you lose all the changes you have made to the Home screens and some other apps need attention to get them functional. 
    Signal strength remains the same but need to use it for a few days to know if it still drops calls and breaks up.  If it does next on the list is running in safe mode for a few days to see if an app is causing it.  If the problem still persists I have the choice of replacing it with insurance, money out of my pocket.  Sending it to Samsung for testing and repair (if necessary), or having Verizon send a replacement refurbished phone.  Probably will go with the refurbished phone and hang on to mine for a few days as well.  If the refurb isn't any better I will return it and then send mine to Samsung. 
    According to Wireless World the insurance company will pay me for my phone if I trade it in before a year is up.  May get up to 50% of full retail.  Not sure what to trade it in for if I go that route.

  • What is the equivalent selection in BI7? (Following BW 3.5 How to...Set up

    Hi,
    What is the equivalent selection in BI7? (Following BW 3.5 How to...Set up BW Statistics)
    I am trying to install BW statistics and all the good things that come with it for BI7. Following the instructions in a document that I was directed to on this site, in SBIW, I installed and replicated all the datasource in under “TCT” tree (Technical content)
    The instruction is for versions prior to BI7 and I had to make modifications as I go.
    Now, this instruction direct me to go to:
    rsa1, “Bi Content” (left) and then “InfoProviders by InfoAreas” and select all InfoProviders for the InfoAreas ”BW Statistics” and “BW Metadata” under the node “Technical Content”.
    1.
    In BI7, there is no ”BW Statistics” and “BW Metadata” infoareas under “Technical Content” if I follow the directions strictly.
    What is the equivalent of this in BI7?
    2.
    In the instructions, the author continues to collect these InfoAreas from under “Technical Content”:
    BW Data Slice
    BW Features characteristics
    BW Metadata
    BW Statistics
    In BI7, do we need exactly these? Or, now different? Should I just transfer all the infoareas under “Technical Content”? What is the disadvantage of collecting a ALL?
    Thanks
