Re: [android-developers] Issue with the basic if statement

On top of all that has been said before, the error message is actually correct.  the IF statement needs an equality operator  ( == ) , not an assignment operator ( = ) .

But in Java you aren't going to get the expected results using == on a String object... you need to use the equals() method.

if (str1.equals(str2))
    //Do something here....
