java.lang.Boolean (JDK 1.0)

This class provides an immutable object wrapper around the boolean primitive type. Note that the TRUE and FALSE constants are Boolean objects; they are not the same as the true and false boolean values. In Java 1.1, this class defines a Class constant that represents the boolean type.

booleanValue() returns the boolean value of a Boolean object. The class method getBoolean() retrieves the boolean value of a named property from the system property list. The class method valueOf() parses a string and returns the Boolean value it represents.

public final class Boolean extends Object implements Serializable {
 // Public Constructors public Boolean(boolean value);

public static final Boolean TRUE; 1.1public static final Class TYPE; // Class Methods public static boolean getBoolean(String name);
public static Boolean valueOf(String s); // Public Instance Methods public boolean booleanValue();
public boolean equals(Object obj); // Overrides Object public int hashCode(); // Overrides Object public String toString(); // Overrides Object
}
