How to exit the program by typing "exit"?

How to exit the program by typing "exit"?

this is the code that i came up with:

Code:

---

import java.io.*;

public class GetCharacterMethodX
{
    public static void main(String Laythe[])
    {
        System.out.println("Enter any character or Enter 'exit' to exit");
        BufferedReader DataIn = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
        String StringX = "";
     
        while ( StringX != "you can type anything here, just dont leave it empty" )       
            {
            if (StringX != "exit" )
            {
                try
                {
                    StringX = DataIn.readLine();
                }
                catch (IOException E)
                {
                    System.out.println("Error!");
                }
               
                char  charX[] = StringX.toCharArray();
               
                try
                {
                    System.out.println("The First Character you have entered is: " +charX[0]);
                }
                catch (Exception E)
                { 
                }
            }
            else
            {
                System.exit(0);
            }
        }
    }

compare strings with .equals() not == or !=

as angryboy told before using equals(),just trim it and call equals method like this below

StringX.trim().equals("exit")

Thank you angryboy for the idea and thank you RamyaSivakanth for the hint ;)
I tried all the possibilities using trim(), equals(), == and != but the program exit befor i can type anything do you have any idea?

Hi,
Just compare your code with my code and u can find the differnce where u are going wrong.If u ahve any problems ,I will explain you.

import java.util.Scanner;
import java.io.*;

Code:

---

public class Test
{
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
        {
                  // TODO, add your application code
        System.out.println("Enter any character or Enter 'exit' to exit");
        BufferedReader DataIn = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
        String StringX = "";
        System.out.println("you can type anything here, just dont leave it empty");
        while ( !StringX.trim().equalsIgnoreCase("exit"))       
        {
               
                    StringX = DataIn.readLine();
               
               
                char  charX[] = StringX.toCharArray();
                System.out.println("The First Character you have entered is: " +charX[0]);

               
        }//while
        }//main
  } //class

---

BufferedReader DataIn = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.println("you can type anything here ");
String StringX = "";
do{
StringX = DataIn.readLine();
}while(!StringX.trim().equalsIgnoreCase("exit"))

so when u type in the new line it will automatically exit
but u should type only exit in the new line because it reads entire line

Thank you very much guys the problem is solved i realy apreciate your help :D
Peace
