The java.lang.Boolean class wraps a boolean.
You can construct a Boolean object from a boolean or a String, using one of these constructors.
public Boolean (boolean value)
public Boolean (String value)
For example:
Boolean b1 = new Boolean (false);
Boolean b2 = new Boolean ("true");
To convert a Boolean to a boolean, use its booleanValue method: public boolean booleanValue()
public class MainClass {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Boolean b1 = new Boolean(false);
Boolean b2 = new Boolean("true");
System.out.println(b1.booleanValue());
System.out.println(b2.booleanValue());
}
}
false
true
