    Default How to return a string from java project into android project

    I tried many times to return a string from java project to an android project But it keeps sending incorrect values as in 2 as it should be 1 here is an example.

    Java Project:

    boolean somethingboolean = false;  
    if(something.equals("1")){  
    somethingboolean = true;  
    }  
     
    public static String getString(){  
    if(somethingboolean == true){  
    return "TRUE";  
    }else{  
    return "FALSE";  
    }  
    }

    Android project:
    System.out.println(JavaProject.getString())


    and in the android project it prints "FALSE"

    So what should i do? Thanks for all...

    "FALSE" is certainly a legitimate result of the code you've posted. If you believe it's wrong, please explain why and post enough code to justify your description.

    This statement:

    if(somethingboolean == true)

    can be reduced to:

    if( somethingboolean )

    but that won't change your outcome.

    If you are dealing with statics, you probably have some sort of data modification going on which is leading to unexpected results. It's hard to say exactly what the problem is with the example you provided.

    You should use android.util.Log for printing to the android logcat. I have heard of some android builds that will automatically pipe System.out to the logcat but typically an android device won't have a console so System.out.println behaves unpredictably.

    I'd suggest you put a breakpoint in the getString method and step through the code. I'm betting that somethingboolean isn't being set but your code fragment isn't telling the full story.
