Not sure if I understand correctly, is the suggestion that there should be a conversion from:
if (var.equalsIgnoreCase("string1")) {
//statements
} else if (var.equalsIgnoreCase("string2")) {
//statements
}
to switch statement? If so, I am afraid that this is a bit more complex, as the switch over strings does not directly support equalsIgnoreCase. It might be possible to solve this in some cases by (locale specific) toLowerCase/toUpperCase-ing the strings, but that is not supported now.

Hey. So in JDK 7 we have the new hints for if /else if strings to switch case strings, howver I noticed it only works if it looks like this if(event.equals("string here") else if (event.equals("strong here") etc or if you use == I think it works too. So instead if you use event.equalsIgnoreCase("string here") it does not give this string , there is probably other cases too but I noticed this one for now Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.0 (Build 201107282000) Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on x86 Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0 Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 21.0-b17
