Java if statements

Question

    {
           String username = loginField.getText();
           char[] password = loginPass.getPassword();
           if (username.equals("test") && password.equals("test"))
           {
                    System.out.println("logged in");
           }
    }

Answer 1

You might want

new String(password).equals("test")

instead. Comparing array to string makes little sense.
