Android Question Select case and strings

[MitchBu]

It seems this does not work :

select case kind
  case "blue"
    log("blue")
  case "yellow"
    log("yellow")
end select

kind is a string.No error is generated, but the logs never execute.

What am I missing ? Is it not possible to use strings in that type of structure ?

Select kind
  case "blue"
  ....
End select

Sorry for too short answer but I really hate the virtual keyboard on my tablet.

Alright.

Thank you udg

It should work with both Select and Select Case. The problem is probably somewhere else. Add Log(kind). Maybe the value is not what you are expecting.

 

[MitchBu]

I did check that. Value was right, but the selection did not occur. That is when I posted because I did not understand.

If you can please create a small project that demonstrates the issue and upload it (File - Export as zip).

 

[MitchBu]

Mysteries abound. I just created a small test project, and of course now it works flawlessly.

It is not unlike the proverbial TV that works only at the repair shop.

At any rate I have modified the code of my current project with no "case", and it works fine.

Thank you

Old TVs worked after a big punch: have you tried (on your Android device)?
