Android setting and getting radio button values as instance variables

Question

Pulling my hair out here. No matter what radio button is selected the package price always comes out to 525.00. Any idea's as to what I am doing wrong?

            //Get and set package selected.
            radioPackageGroup = (RadioGroup)   findViewById(R.id.radTadPackage);
            int selectedId = radioPackageGroup.getCheckedRadioButtonId();
            btnPackage = (RadioButton) findViewById(selectedId);
            String display_package_selected = btnPackage.getText().toString(); 
            TadGlobals.getTadPackageInstance().setTadPackage(display_package_selected);     

            //Set package price.
            double package_price = 0.00;
            if(display_package_selected == "Bronze"){
                package_price = 150.00;
            }else if(display_package_selected == "Silver"){
                package_price = 225.00;
            }else if(display_package_selected == "Gold"){
                package_price = 375.00;
            }else{
                package_price = 525.00;
            }
            TadGlobals.getPackagePriceInstance().setPackagePrice(package_price);

Oh, I forgot to add. I tested the instance variable that holds the string value of the radio button that was selected...so if user chose "Bronze" the string "Bronze" is getting returned. — BriKau, Jun 17 '13 at 19:19

Use String.equals() method to compare string objects:

if(display_package_selected.equals("Bronze")) 
{
                package_price = 150.00;
}
else if(display_package_selected.equals("Silver"))
{
                package_price = 225.00;
}
else if(display_package_selected.equals("Gold"))
{
                package_price = 375.00;
}
else
{
                package_price = 525.00;
}
