Condition ignored.

The "if" condition at line 22 is ignored.
It is suppose to append the read(from the stream) character to codeToken three times(the "if" condition at line 22 make sure that happen), but instead, its ignored all the time.
The output is like this:

It is suppose to look like this(but it doesnt, that's the problem):

Code:

        public void decryptFile() throws Exception
        {
                assetsLoaded ();
                controlKey ();
               
                FileReader fr = new FileReader (this.filePath);
                BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader (fr);
               
                FileOutputStream fo = new FileOutputStream (this.outputPath);
                BufferedOutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream (fo);

                int binary;
                int counter = 0;
                String codeToken = "";
               
                while ((binary = in.read ()) != -1)
                {
                        codeToken = codeToken + ((char) binary);
                       
                        System.out.println ("------------");//DEBUG
                       
                        if (counter++ > CODESPERCHAR)
                                continue;
                       
                        System.out.println (codeToken);//DEBUG
                        //out.write ((int)decrypt (codeToken));
                        codeToken = "";
                        counter = 0;
                }
                in.close ();
                out.close ();
        }

Where is CODESPERCHAR defined?

in an other class(its a instance variable). I have initiated it to 3 in the constructor.
Actually, I used wrong variable. I am suppose to use CODELENGTH(3) instead of CODESPERCHAR(30). I changed it, but the problem remain the same.
CODELENGTH is also initiated in the constructor.

Impossible!

If statements are never ignored. Your assumption that the if statement evaluates to true/false is incorrect. Debug your code by placing some print statements before the if to see what values the variables have.

Then how can you have direct access to it in this code?

I am pretty sure it is ignored, or eclipse is fucking up(its not the first time it fuck up).

Code:

---

                        if (counter++ > CODELENGTH)
                        {
                                System.out.println ("I am not ignored");
                                continue;
                        }

Not once is the message "I am not ignored" displayed.

I have access to it because the variables access is protected and not private.

That means that the if statement is ALWAYS evaluating to false. It is NEVER ignored.

you woke me up. thanks(and stupid me).

Similar problem.
The if statementat line 29 is always false. The block in line 30 to 33 is never executed. I cant see why.
passwords.length is 3.

Code:

---

        public void scrambleFile (int... passwords) throws IOException
        {
                if (0 >= passwords.length)
                        throw new IllegalArgumentException ("At least one value");
               
                this.extension = "cry";
                setFileName ();
               
                BufferedInputStream in = new BufferedInputStream (new FileInputStream (this.inputFile));
                DataOutputStream out = new DataOutputStream (new BufferedOutputStream (new FileOutputStream (this.outputFile)));
               
                int number = 0;
                int counter = 0;
                boolean addition = (passwords[0] > 100) ? true : false;
               
                while ((number = in.read ()) != -1)
                {
                        if (addition)       
                        {
                                out.writeInt ((number + passwords[counter]));
                                addition = false;
                        }                               
                        else
                        {
                                out.writeInt ((number - passwords[counter]));
                                addition = true;
                        }
                       
                        if (++counter > passwords.length)       
                        {
                                System.out.println ("Increasing: " + counter);
                                continue;
                        }
                        System.out.println ("Reset");
                        counter = 0;
                }
                in.close ();
                out.close ();
        }
