Question

My application code is as follows,

public class Alarm extends MainActivity {

public String str;

public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
    //---get the CB message passed in---
    Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();        
    SmsCbMessage[] msgs = null;
    str = "";            
    if (bundle != null)  {
        //---retrieve the SMS message received---
        Object[] pdus = (Object[]) bundle.get("pdus");
        msgs = new SmsCbMessage[pdus.length];            
        for (int i=0; i<msgs.length; i++) {
            msgs[i] = SmsCbMessage.createFromPdu((byte[])pdus[i]);                
            str += "CB " + msgs[i].getGeographicalScope() + msgs[i].getMessageCode() + msgs[i].getMessageIdentifier() + msgs[i].getUpdateNumber();                     
            str += " :";
            str += "\n";        
        }
        }
        }


EditText user_value;
Button startalarm;


@Override
 public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
{
 super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
 setContentView(R.layout.third);

startalarm = (Button) findViewById(R.id.startalarm);
user_value = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.user_value);

startalarm.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() 
{

public void onClick(View arg0)
{
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
if(user_value.length()==0)
{
    Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Please enter a value.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}

    SQLiteDatabase aa = openOrCreateDatabase("MLIdata", MODE_WORLD_READABLE, null);
    Cursor c = aa.rawQuery("SELECT CblocationName FROM MLITable WHERE CblocationCode = '"+str+"'", null);
    c.moveToFirst();
    c.getString(c.getColumnIndex("CblocationName"));
    String sas = user_value.getText().toString();
    if(sas==getString(c.getColumnIndex("CblocationName")))
    {
        //here comes the alarm code

        Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "till here it has executed.",     Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        Notification notification = new     Notification(android.R.drawable.ic_popup_reminder,
        "My Notification", System.currentTimeMillis());
        notification.defaults |= Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND;
        notification.defaults |= Notification.DEFAULT_VIBRATE;
    }
}


});
}
   }

Though there are no errors, when I run this code it force closes when I press the ‘startalarm’ button.

My log cat is as follows,

I’ve tried all the solutions given in the below link, yet none helped.

Android, string resource not found

Help required,

Thank you.

Answer 1

I had no idea my comment would fix your exception. I will put it as an answer so you can close this question.

Change this line:

if(sas==getString(c.getColumnIndex("CblocationName")))

to

if(sas.equals(getString(c.getColumnIndex("CblocationName"))))

Read up on String comparison if you don’t understand why this should be like this.
