android - sharedpreferences getting wrong boolean value -

i create sharedpreferences boolean value check, value return false. how return correct boolean value sharedpreferences?

below code

  public boolean getbtnstate(context context,string text)//edit store url here , check boolean here {     sharedpreferences prefs;     prefs = context.getsharedpreferences(prefs_name, context.mode_private);      string favurl = getprefsfavurl(context);      boolean switchstate = false;      if(favurl == text) {         switchstate=true;     }      return switchstate;//always return false here  } 

here code sharedpreferences value

 @override     public object instantiateitem(final viewgroup container, final int position) {         showprogress();         imageview = (imageview) findviewbyid(r.id.btn_favourite);          boolean statebtnnow=sharedpreference.getbtnstate(context,murl);          if(statebtnnow) {              imageview.setcolorfilter(color.argb(255, 249, 0, 0));//red          }         else          {              imageview.setcolorfilter(color.argb(255, 192, 192, 192));          }  

you comparing 2 string variables == operator instead use .equals() method.

if(favurl.equals(text)) {     switchstate=true; } 

it work.

refer this question == , equals().
