Swing/AWT/SWT :: Compare Inputted String With Key String
Aug 28, 2014
I have a method for a button so when a user inputs something it then will get the string value and check it against the string value within the properties file to see if it exists.
The properties file is called GitCommands.properties that contains -- > key = value <-- in it
I realised I have not used it correctly hence why I keep getting errors - I am lost on how to use it, I think perhaps that may be the issue here? I need to reference the file but I am doing it wrong? When I do use that piece of code I get null pointer exception too...
textFieldSearch.getText().equals(GitCommands.keys());
This is my button:
JButton btnSearch = new JButton("Search");
btnSearch.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
FindSelectedKey();
[code] .....
I understand I am missing my piece of code where it states "//determine whether the string is equal to the property file key string" I understand the logic fine but not actually coding it.

I am currently trying to make a calculator in Java. I want to use the String split method to tokenize the string of characters inputted. I thought I was using the String split method wrongly, because I had surrounded the characters I wanted to delimit with square brackets. However, when I removed the square brackets, the code threw an exception when I pressed the equal button. The exception was a PatternSyntaxException exception. Am I using the String split method wrongly? And why is the exception thrown? Here is my code:
import javax.swing.*;//import the packages needed for gui
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;
import static java.lang.Math.*;
public class CalculatorCopy {
public static void main(String[] args) {

I'm having trouble to compare two string from my LinkedList. I took me 2 days now trying figure out how to compare the current string to previous string in the linkedlist. Here is my code.
public int compareTo(LinkedListNode n){
//Compare two string
String myHead = data.toLowerCase();
String comparableHead = data.toLowerCase();
return (myHead.compareTo(comparableHead));
}

How do I compare a String to each element of a string array?
For example:
int headscount = 0;
if (coins[i].equals("heads")){
headscount++;
System.out.println("b" + headscount);
}
This doesn't give me the right value because the IDE says that equals() is an incompatible type. I also tried changing the "heads" to an variable, but the results remains the same.
I would prefer using an Array!

In this code, I have to do a series of tasks to change a String using specialized codes that are inputted. The one that I am having trouble with is as follows:
MC-SLXD: Circulates the sub-string in position S with a length of L, rotate the string X characters over in the direction of D. All the arguments (S,L,X and D will be one character in length. The direction will be either L or R for Left or Right.Example: MC-332R/COMPUTER = COPUMTER.

Why isn't it working?
Java Code:
if ((line.substring(i,i+2)) == "go")
break; mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
I printed this to check if substring works fine, used this:
Java Code: System.out.println(line.substring(i,i+2) + " : "+ length); mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
So, output:
Er : 1
ra : 2
ag : 3
go : 4
on : 5
n' : 6
'> : 7
Line:
String line = "Eragon'>";
Shouldn't it break loop after printing "go : 4"?
line.substring(i,i+2) prints go here. But if doesn't work.

I want to make a program in which i write the Months Strings via while into the checkbox.
I already did that but i have also to add an day if February is a loop day.
So my question is how to say java that if Months is equal to February & year is a leap year, add 1. (i didn't wrote the year code because it's not relevant for my problem.)
Java Code:
public String[] Months ={"January","February","March","April","May", "June", "July", "August", "September", "Oktober", "November", "December"};
public Asg1KeapYear() {
initComponents();
int MonthNo = 0;
[Code] ....
Netbeans shows me .equals() on incompatible types on Months.equals, do i have to declare it somehow?

I am having issues with the program below everything works but I can't figure out a way to add code that if a user just hits enter without inputting anything it says "entering in nothing is not a valid choice" I am stuck on how to compare a int to a string ...
//import statements
import java.util.*; //for scanner class
// class beginning
public class Guess {
public static void main(String[] args ) {

What I'm trying to do is compare String input to a char array. Let me make it a little more plain, I'm working on a cipher assignment, and my line of thought is this: I will get String input from the user, COMPARE the characters in the string input to an alphabet array, which will then be compared to the cipher array so that the cipher's counterpart can be chosen over the alphabet's. Any way that I might compare the random input keyed in by the user to that alphabet array?

I'm trying to implement a Binary Search Tree that accepts strings. I cannot figure out how to compare the string value in my add method against the node object. While I could make the node class data be the string type I am trying to make the code be as reusable as possible. So my question is this, is there a simple way I can compare the two that I am missing?
public class BTNode<E> {
private E data;
private BTNode<E> left, right;
//constructor
public BTNode(E initialData, BTNode<E> initialLeft, BTNode<E> initialRight) {
data = initialData;
left = initialLeft;
right = initialRight;

I'm trying to do something like this:
Java Code:
for (int i=1; i<2; i++);
int randomNum = rn.nextInt(range) + 1;
if (randomNum == CardList.CARD_NAME[randomNum]){
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
But the CARD_NAME variable is a string. I just want to compare the array to the integer.

I'm attempting a small program as I'm teaching myself the ropes. In it, I need to compare one string (the base) to another which is just the base string that's had it's characters shuffled.
Java Code:
String base = "ABCDEFG"
String shuffled = "CDAFBEG" mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
What I need to do is run a loop that shuffles the base string each time, but compares and saves any characters that match in the correct location. For example, if shuffled = "CDAFBEG", then the G would be "locked" in place and the rest of the characters shuffled and looped back to the comparison.
I have all the code I need for shuffling the string, but I'm not sure how I would go about comparing each character and then also locking it in place. I get the basics, I think, of needed to use several variables.

I made a guess a number program but I am having issue figuring out a way that when a user enter's in nothing for the program to spit out a message saying "hey entering nothing doesn't work try again" then ask for input. I have done some research and from what I have found is to read the input in as a String rather than int, and use something like Integer.valueOf() to get the integer value but I am completely lost on how to apply that to my program here is my code
//import statements
import java.util.*; //for scanner class
// class beginning
public class Guess {
public static void main(String[] args ) {
//Declare variables area
int guess, secretNumber = (int) (Math.random() * 10 + 1), lowGuess,highGuess;

Example : I have code and name but my code must start with the first letter of the inputed name if the 2 input is match it will be inserted into database
code = "A"001
name ="Angela"
= success this will inserted into database
else
code ="B"002
name="Angela"
=failed this will not inserted into database
else
code="A"003
name="Andy"
=success still accepts the input cause they have diff code number
What I am thinking on this was compare the code the name? if == it will be inserted but how do i get the 1st letter of the input name?

How can I write a method that takes a string with duplicates letters and returns the same string which does not contain duplicates. For example, if you pass it radar, it will return rad. Also i would like to know how can I Write a method that takes as parameters the secret word and the good guesses and returns a string that is the secretword but has dashes in the places where the player has not yet guessed that letter. For example, if the secret word is radar and the player has already guessed the good guesses letters r and d, the method will return r-d-r.

i am trying to write a class method which will take in a string and returns a string which is the reversed version of that string. it compiles fine but when i try to run it it states Main method not found in class StringReverse,please define the main method as public static void main(String[]args). I am new to java and cannot figure out
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class StringReverse {
public String reverseString(String str){
JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"Please enter word");
char c = str.charAt(str.length()-1);
if(str.length() == 1) return Character.toString(c);
return c + reverseString(str.substring(0,str.length()-1));}}

I'm having trouble with the last few lines of the code. It's supposed to take a replacement string entered by the user and print out the new string. For some reason it's now allowing me to enter a replacement string
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Project02 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Enter a long string: ");
String lString = keyboard.nextLine();
[Code] ....
Output:
Enter a long string: the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog
Enter a substring: jumped
Length of your string: 44
Length of your substring: 6
Starting position of your substring in string: 20
String before your substring: the quick brown fox
String after your substring: over the lazy dog
Enter a position between 0 and 43: 18
The character at position 18 is x
Enter a replacement string: Your new string is: the quick brown fox over the lazy dog <------ isn't taking user input

I understand that there is a problem with .scale(), not able to get an idea about the corrective step. Please run the below class.

I am trying to split a string based on length(example length 5) of the string. But I am having a issues with this substring(start, end) method. I get all substring which are of length 5. But if the last substring is less than 5 then I am not getting that last substring. But I need the last substring even if it is less than 5.
String s = "fjdjfdfjgffgjhfjghfjkhjhjh";
String spLine;
for(int i=0; i<s.length(); i=i+5){
spLine = s.substring(i, (5+i));
}

Code a Java method that accepts a String array and a String. The method should return true if the string can be found as an element of the array and false otherwise. Test your method by calling it from the main method which supplies its two parameters (no user input required). Use an array initialiser list to initialise the array you pass. Test thoroughly.
public class test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Printhelloworld();
String[] verbs = {"go", "do", "some", "homework"};
printArrays(verbs);

So I'm creating a class which when given three inputs uses them as sides of a triangle and tells ther user what type of triangle it is, or if the input is invalid, tells them why it is invalid. I'm readin the input as a string and then trying to split it into a string array, from there checking to see if it has 3 elements.. in which the data is good at that point, and then converting them to ints and checking to see if they're negative ansd finally checking to see if they can work as sides of a triangle ie a+b >c, a+c >b , b+c >a.
I'm trying to split it into an array of strings but am getting an error, and can't seem to figure out why as this should be working from what I've read of the string.split method online.
import java.util.*;
public class TriangleTest{
private int sideA;
private int sideB;
private int sideC;
public static void main(String[] args){
TriangleTest triangle = new TriangleTest("3 4 5");
[Code] ....
The output reads [Ljava.lang.String;@15db9742

I've a problem in encoding a URL string.
I know to encode a string we use,
URLEncoder.encode(stringname,"UTF-8");
But when I use this I'm getting an error telling that the encode method will accept only 1 String argument.

I have a string value returned from a background tool that will range from 0 to possibly terabytes as a full number. I want to format that number to use commas and to reduce the character count using an appropriate size modifier (KiB, MiB, GiB, etc). I've tried converting the string number to a Double value using Double.parseDouble() and then performing the math based on the size of the value with this code:
Double dblConversionSize;
String stCinvertedSize;
dblConversionSize = Double.parseDouble(theValue);
if (dblConversionSize > (1024 * 1024 * 1024))
stConvertedSize = String.format("%,.000d", dblConversionSize / 1024 / 1024 / 1024) + " TiB";
...
I've also tried using
String.valueOf(dblConversionSize / 1024 / 1024 / 1024) + " TiB";
However, the formatting is failing and I'm either getting a format exception or the result is displayed as a number with no decimal component.
