Re: [rules-users] Can get "not equal" (!=) to work but not "equal" (==) in LHS

It may be because in Java you have to compare strings using .equals(""); So in your case it would be: ruleFlowId.equals("test") == true It's because Strings are objects, and == tests to see if the String is literally the same object as the other String, not just a String with the same value. != works because they aren't the same object. Hope that works, Rich. -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/Can-get-not-equal-to-work-but-not-equal...
