We can convert a string to a Boolean value in Java using the Boolean
class. We do this by passing the string to its constructor statement.
Boolean booleanVariable = new Boolean(string)
Boolean
: This is the Boolean class whose constructor will be used to convert a string to a boolean.booleanVariable
: This is the variable's name that will contain the converted string.new
: This is the keyword used to create a new instance or the new Boolean value.string
: This is the string value we want to convert to a Boolean value.The value returned is a Boolean, which is equivalent to the string.
class HelloWorld {public static void main( String args[] ) {// create some stringsString str1 = "true";String str2 = "false";String str3 = "1";String str4 = "0";// Convert using constructorBoolean bool1 = new Boolean(str1);Boolean bool2 = new Boolean(str2);Boolean bool3 = new Boolean(str3);Boolean bool4 = new Boolean(str4);// print resultsSystem.out.println("Boolean value is : " +bool1);System.out.println("Boolean value is : " +bool2);System.out.println("Boolean value is : " +bool3);System.out.println("Boolean value is : " +bool4);}}
