How do I test for equality between an Array of associations and an Object (instance) in Pharo Smalltalk?

I have this small piece of code which doesn't seem to work and test weather the objects are one and the same.

something := ((selectedTab value) ==  registerObject).

or:

((selectedTab value) ==  registerObject) ifTrue: [ "this never get's executed" ]

I've "Explored pointer" on both instances "selected value" has the exact same id as "registerObject" and I've even put in parenthesis to boot.

Can anyone enlighten me on the subject?

Solution

SelectedTab was an Array or 'name' -> object associations with just one such association. I was convinced it was storing just the object itself.

I had to use first value instead of just value:

something := ((selectedTab first value) ==  registerObject).

((selectedTab first value) ==  registerObject) ifTrue: [ "this never get's executed" ]

Rookie mistake everyone!!! I raised hell for nothing.
