Question

I am fetching column values from my DB (Which is working fine) then I am putting these values into ‘String X’ one at a time as it loops. In the same loop I want to compare the values supplied to me by the user through UI with X and based on this comparison I want x to be true or false. But x always shows true! Here is my code:

   private boolean fillData() {
       Cursor c = DBHelper.fetchAllIDs();
       // List<String> idList = new ArrayList<String>();
       if (c.moveToFirst()) {
        do {
            String X = (c.getString(c.getColumnIndexOrThrow("IDno")));
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "" +X, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            String B = null; 
            B = Idno.getText().toString();
            if (B.equals(X));
            {
                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "If condition true"+B, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                x=true;
            }
        } while (c.moveToNext());


       }
    return x;
  }

I got this folks, I had mistakenly put a ‘;’ at the end of my if statement. Sorry! Silly!
