Unable to switch on String in JRE7
<p>I'm on jre7 and I still can't switch on Strings. I installed jdk7 update 1 and pointed Eclipse to it but still no luck. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Thank you.</p>

<p>Here is a the code:</p>

<pre><code>String code = "something";
switch(code) {
case "xxx": dosomehting(); break;
default: dosomethingelse(); break;
}
</code></pre>

<p>The error I get:
Cannot switch on a value of type String. Only convertible int values or enum constants are permitted.</p>
