I have a method that returns a number which I know to be of value 1 I have a static number variable in another class (SWF_STATE) which I also know to be 1. In an if() statement they evaluate to equal the same, however in the following switch statement it will not evaluate?
trace("TYPE:"+currItem.getMediaType()+" COMPARED TO:" + VideoVO.SWF_STATE); // this traces "TYPE:1 COMPARED TO:1" if(currItem.getMediaType() == VideoVO.SWF_STATE) { trace("wtf?!");//this evaluates and traces } switch(currItem.getMediaType()) // this switch always traces the error (default branch) { case VideoVO.FLV_STATE: this.currentPlayer = swfPlayer; break; case VideoVO.SWF_STATE: this.currentPlayer = swfPlayer; break; case VideoVO.MP3_STATE: this.currentPlayer = swfPlayer; break; case sometest==VideoVO.JPG_STATE: this.currentPlayer = swfPlayer; break; default: trace("ERROR: NO MEDIA TYPE!!!!!"); } trace(sometest); // traces 1 trace(VideoVO.SWF_STATE); // traces 1 Any help on this very much appreciated!
