public final class Boolean

  1. Object
  2. Boolean
The Boolean class wraps a value of the primitive type boolean in an object. An object of type Boolean contains a single field whose type is boolean. Since: JDK1.0, CLDC 1.0

Fields

public static final Boolean FALSEThe Boolean object corresponding to the primitive value false.
public static final Boolean TRUEThe Boolean object corresponding to the primitive value true.

Constructors

public Boolean(boolean value)Allocates a Boolean object representing the value argument.

Methods

public boolean booleanValue()Returns the value of this Boolean object as a boolean primitive.
public boolean equals(Object obj)Returns true if and only if the argument is not null and is a Boolean object that represents the same boolean value as this object.
public int hashCode()Returns a hash code for this Boolean object.
public String toString()Returns a String object representing this Boolean’s value.
public static Boolean valueOf(boolean b)Returns the object instance of i
public static Boolean valueOf(String b)
public static boolean parseBoolean(String s)
public int compareTo(Boolean b2)

Field details

FALSE

public static final Boolean FALSE
The Boolean object corresponding to the primitive value false.

TRUE

public static final Boolean TRUE
The Boolean object corresponding to the primitive value true.

Constructor details

Boolean

public Boolean(boolean value)
Allocates a Boolean object representing the value argument. value - the value of the Boolean.

Method details

booleanValue

public boolean booleanValue()
Returns the value of this Boolean object as a boolean primitive.

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)
Returns true if and only if the argument is not null and is a Boolean object that represents the same boolean value as this object.

hashCode

public int hashCode()
Returns a hash code for this Boolean object.

toString

public String toString()
Returns a String object representing this Boolean’s value. If this object represents the value true, a string equal to “true” is returned. Otherwise, a string equal to “false” is returned.

valueOf

public static Boolean valueOf(boolean b)
Returns the object instance of i

Parameters

b boolean
the primitive

Returns

object instance

valueOf

public static Boolean valueOf(String b)

parseBoolean

public static boolean parseBoolean(String s)

compareTo

public int compareTo(Boolean b2)
