While loop not terminating

Question

hmm. very strange to me. i have a condition that if a person enters QUIT then the program should terminate but for some reason its not terminating.
import java.util.*;
class BicycleTest {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          BNode start, tail, next;
          start = null;
          Scanner s = new Scanner(System.in);
          System.out.println("Enter name");
          String name = s.next();
          if(!name.equalsIgnoreCase("QUIT")) {
               start = new BNode(new Bicycle(name), null);
               tail = start;
               while(true) {
                    name = s.next();
                    if(name.equalsIgnoreCase("QUIT")) break;
                    next = new BNode(new Bicycle(name), null);
                    tail.setNext(next);
                    tail = next;
}

jverd when you say an older version that means the
java version or the compiler? No, an older version of your code. Like you changed it (to what you first posted) but forgot to save or recompile. Maybe before you had equals instead of equalsIgnoreCase, or something like that.
