StringTokenizer URGENT help please!

Hi everyone, merry christmas! im having a bit of a problem with a string tokenizer! i wondered if someone could show me how its done please.

im trying to set up my own reserved word - END, which will end the program and print a message.

this is what i have so far, i want it to produce a message when it encounters an END and say how many lines it has processed. (i have a text file which is being opened and it looks for the END in there)

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;

class cw3btest
{
public static void main (String args[])
{

try {
RandomAccessFile inFile = new RandomAccessFile(args[0], "r");


String line; // a string to contain the line read
int nooflines=0;
int i;

while (( line=inFile.readLine() ) != null)
{
System.out.println(line);
nooflines++;
}

System.out.println("[" + nooflines + " lines processed]");

if(line=="END")
{
System.out.println("TPL Finished OK [" + nooflines + " lines processed]");
}

} catch (IOException e)
{
System.out.println("An i/o error has occurred ["+e+"]");
}
}
}

i would be grateful for any help.
Many thanks,

What I meant to say was that whenever there is an END in the program itself it will terminate and produce a message. I didnt mean to say that it looks for an END in the txt file. Sorry for the confusion!

Not to sure what exactly you want to do.. but
if(line=="END")
that can't happen... the == operator doesn't work on literal strings. Use .equals(); or .equalsIgnoreCase();

thanks for your help!

im trying to compose a program that will terminate whenever it encounters an "END" instruction.

This means i am trying to set up my own reserved word for "END" so it understands what to do.

i think this method is called parsing?

can anyone show me how its done please?
