A classical beginner's mistake. You are using Java objects and comparing
references, not the values, so this is expected behavior. Simply compare
the objects using equals().

Hi guys!
It seems that version 1.8.0_101 has a bug in equality for same java data
types (java.lang.Long).
Check that:
jjs> new java.lang.Long(10) == new java.lang.Long(10)
false
Oops!?
See the gist:
https://gist.github.com/joaovarandas/51567bd3b576d48a4c574d60d5a60ba3
The results for all types should be ...
== true
=== true
equals true
But for java.lang.Long and java.math.BigDecimal:
== false
=== false
equals true
Maybe we could expand the test to other classes too, but the issue ...
- It does happen in 1.8.0_101.
- It does not 1.8.0_91.
- It does happen with other classes (BigDecimal).
- It does not happen with String.
- It does not happen with Integer.
I understand this is not an expected behavior. For now I'm rolling back
to 1.8.0_91 in my environments.
Do you me to file a bug?
Thanks
