[SOLVED] C# Bool Variable always false

[rkt_167]

hi all,

I am comparing two strings:

---

Code C# - [expand]
1
bool d = (String.Equals(ethernetHeader.Source,staticForm.textBox1.Text.ToString()));

---

this statement is always false even in console both are same as below..
ethernetHeader.Source=00:25:64:4F:219
textBox1.Text=00:25:64:4F:219

any possible reason??

thanks,

should work - could you have spaces or a newline in one of the strings? try printing the strings e.g.

            Console.WriteLine(" '{0}' '{1}' {2}\n", ethernetHeader.Source, staticForm.textBox1.Text.ToString(), d);

you should then see if the strings are identical

also you don't require the ToSting() in staticForm.textBox1.Text.ToString()
staticForm.textBox1.Text returns a string

thanks horace1,

bool d = (String.Equals(ethernetHeader.Source.ToString(), staticForm.textBox1.Text.Trim()));

I used Trim() and now it is working fine.
