Comparing SSID to a string

Question

I have trying to do something when I get to know that in my wifilist this SSID is present

My code is somewhat :

List<ScanResult> wifilist = wifi.getScanResults();

for(int i=0;i<wifilist.size();i++){
 if (wifilist.get(i).SSID.equals("Wifi1")){

                        // Do somthing  
                      }
}

Where Wifi1 is name of the wifi network.

But I m not able to do so as if it seem wifilist.get(i).SSID isn't able to compare it to "Wifi1". If you can tell me where I am wrong

     WifiManager mWifiManager;

   List<ScanResult> mScanResults = mWifiManager.getScanResults();

    for(ScanResult results : mScanResults) {

        Log.d("SSID  result", results.SSID);

        if (results.SSID.equals("WIFI NAME")) {

            break;
        }


    }

This isn't substantially different from the OP's version. – Kenster Jun 17 '14 at 10:52

What does wifilist.get(i).SSID.getClass() say? If it isn't java.lang.String, then you most probably need to call .toString() and you're done.

SSID has double quotation marks. Instead of

SSID.equals("Wifi1")

you should use

SSID.equals("\"Wifi1\"")
