[SOLVED] Check command

[Azndaddy]

Hi, how code is needed to check an input of command so that, when the command is entered wrong it would return null;

example: on this class

public class Quit extends Commands
{
    public Quit(Editor editor)
    {
        super("quit", editor);    
    }
    
    public void execute()
    {
        System.out.println("Bye!");
        System.exit(0);
    }
}

Help would be great

Thanks

If your command is a string, I think it is "Bye!", simply use a boolean variable, with comparing Strings. It the variable is true, do the process you want. If it is false do nothing.

Azndaddy, what you're referring to is basic programming logic, fundamentally in the if/then area of logic. This will be a common task throughout your programming career and in this case, because the code you provided is a little obscure, is a task only you will be able to complete.

Post more general code and we can assist. But basically, it goes something like this:

...
if (command != desired) {
  // do something to imply wrong command
} else {
  // do the thing you were meaning to do
}
...

yeah i know its the basic, but it been too long since i touched java programming. i'll see what i can do.

thanks for the help
