I want to make a class that takes a String and checks if that String is found in a .txt File. If it is found, I want to store the words following that String in a String array.
Here is what I have until now:
import java.io.File;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class ClassName {
private Scanner scan;
public String ch[] = new String[3];
private String ID;
public Champion(String id) {
this.ID = id;
try{
scan = new Scanner(new File("myfile.txt"));
}
catch(Exception e) {
System.out.println("Error: " + e);
}
while(scan.hasNext()) {
String check = scan.next();
if(check == ID) {
for(int i=0; i<champion.length; i++) {
this.ch[i] = scan.next();
}
}
}
}
public void printValues() {
System.out.printf("%s: %s %s %s", ID, ch[0], ch[1], ch[2]);
}
}Where the myfile.txt goes like: "abc 20 40 50" on each row"
From what I can tell the if statement does not work, but I can't understand why.
Help!
