Another way of putting my question, maybe, is: why do these == return
different values:
package com.crackwillow.deploy;
import java.lang.ref.Reference;
import java.lang.ref.WeakReference;
public class MyReference {
public static void main(String [] params) {
CheckPlease cp = new CheckPlease();
cp.setBill("1.01");
WeakReference wr = new WeakReference(cp);
System.out.println("(cp == (CheckPlease)wr.get()): " + (cp ==
(CheckPlease)wr.get()));
cp = new CheckPlease();
System.out.println("(cp == (CheckPlease)wr.get()): " + (cp ==
(CheckPlease)wr.get()));
}
}
class CheckPlease {
private String bill = "0.00";
public void setBill(String add) {
if(add == null) add = "freebee";
else bill += " + " + add;
}
public String getBill() {
return bill;
}
public String toString() {
return bill;
}
}
