Java issue

[brentc]

The following Java code:

if (txtEmail.toString().indexOf('@' , 0) == -1) {
showSnackbar("Test Invalid Email");
}

It executes showSnackbar when there IS an @ in the txtEmail input field.. Why?

Thank you anyone for your help.

It is incredible.

If I do this:

if ("Test@ String".indexOf("@" ) == -1) {
showSnackbar("Invalid Email");
}

showSnackbar() does not get executed. It works OK.

So...It is the txtEmail.toString that is causing the problem. Could it be the Java compiler's fault??

The string is not getting transfered. Not the compilers ' fault.

I do this:

txtEmail = findViewById(R.id.txtEmail);

and the value of txtEmail does not get transfered.. Why not?

Ok here is the correct code:

if (txtEmail.getText().toString().indexOf('@' , 0) == -1) {
showSnackbar("Test Invalid Email");
}
