Hello,

I am using FS5.1,I would like to compare 2 string using equals method.

If i read the input directly using #content means it is returning as TRUE. using CMS_SET(....) returns FALSE.

Why this behavious is happening?

Example:

$CMS_TRIM(level:4)$$CMS_SET(ltSelectedName)$$CMS_VALUE(content.external_link.getTemplate().getName())$$CMS_END_SET$$CMS_END_TRIM$

             <!--ltSelectedName:$CMS_VALUE(ltSelectedName)$-->

             <!--compare1:$CMS_VALUE(ltSelectedName.equals("lt_overlaylink_email "))$-->

             <!--compare2:$CMS_VALUE("lt_overlaylink_email".equals(ltSelectedName))$-->            

             <!--compare5:$CMS_VALUE(content.external_link.getTemplate().getName().trim().equals("lt_overlaylink_email"))$-->

Result in the HTML Generation:

     <!--ltSelectedName:lt_overlaylink_email-->

    <!--compare1:false-->

    <!--compare2:false-->

    <!--compare5:true-->

Thank you.

  Hello Siva,

  The reason is that you are simply not comparing Strings ;-)

  Using $CMS_SET(...)$...$CMS_END_SET$ does not create a String but a template fragment object that will be rendered upon calling $CMS_VALUE(..)$ or .toString() on it - as described in the documentation of $CMS_SET$.

  So you have to use

  $CMS_VALUE("lt_overlaylink_email".equals(ltSelectedName.toString()))$
