Hi,

We were using Jetty 8 and now trying to upgrade on Jetty 9. The below piece of code has different results in both versions of Jetty.

if (a != "") 

Where a is string variable. 

I understand the code is wrong, we should always use a.equals for comparison. But we have it at so many places, but not sure why Jetty 8 and Jetty 9 have different results for it.

Please let me know.

Thanks
