Java compact1, compact2, compact3 java.lang Class Boolean（JDK8）

Field Detail

• TRUE

  public static final Boolean TRUE

  The Boolean object corresponding to the primitive value true.

• FALSE

  public static final Boolean FALSE

  The Boolean object corresponding to the primitive value false.

• TYPE

  public static final Class<Boolean> TYPE

  The Class object representing the primitive type boolean.

  Since:

  JDK1.1

Constructor Detail

• Boolean

  public Boolean(boolean value)

  Allocates a Boolean object representing the value argument.

  Note: It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Unless a new instance is required, the static factory valueOf(boolean) is generally a better choice. It is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.

  Parameters:

  value - the value of the Boolean.

• Boolean

  public Boolean(String s)

  Allocates a Boolean object representing the value true if the string argument is not null and is equal, ignoring case, to the string "true". Otherwise, allocate a Boolean object representing the value false. Examples:

  new Boolean("True") produces a Boolean object that represents true.
  new Boolean("yes") produces a Boolean object that represents false.

  Parameters:

  s - the string to be converted to a Boolean.

Method Detail

• parseBoolean

  public static boolean parseBoolean(String s)

  Parses the string argument as a boolean. The boolean returned represents the value true if the string argument is not null and is equal, ignoring case, to the string "true".

  Example: Boolean.parseBoolean("True") returns true.
  Example: Boolean.parseBoolean("yes") returns false.

  Parameters:

  s - the String containing the boolean representation to be parsed

  Returns:

  the boolean represented by the string argument

  Since:

  1.5

• booleanValue

  public boolean booleanValue()

  Returns the value of this Boolean object as a boolean primitive.

  Returns:

  the primitive boolean value of this object.

• valueOf

  public static Boolean valueOf(boolean b)

  Returns a Boolean instance representing the specified boolean value. If the specified boolean value is true, this method returns Boolean.TRUE; if it is false, this method returns Boolean.FALSE. If a new Boolean instance is not required, this method should generally be used in preference to the constructor Boolean(boolean), as this method is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.

  Parameters:

  b - a boolean value.

  Returns:

  a Boolean instance representing b.

  Since:

  1.4

• valueOf

  public static Boolean valueOf(String s)

  Returns a Boolean with a value represented by the specified string. The Boolean returned represents a true value if the string argument is not null and is equal, ignoring case, to the string "true".

  Parameters:

  s - a string.

  Returns:

  the Boolean value represented by the string.

• toString

  public static String toString(boolean b)

  Returns a String object representing the specified boolean. If the specified boolean is true, then the string "true" will be returned, otherwise the string "false" will be returned.

  Parameters:

  b - the boolean to be converted

  Returns:

  the string representation of the specified boolean

  Since:

  1.4

• 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.

  Overrides:

  toString in class Object

  Returns:

  a string representation of this object.

• hashCode

  public int hashCode()

  Returns a hash code for this Boolean object.

  Overrides:

  hashCode in class Object

  Returns:

  the integer 1231 if this object represents true; returns the integer 1237 if this object represents false.

  See Also:

  Object.equals(java.lang.Object), System.identityHashCode(java.lang.Object)

• hashCode

  public static int hashCode(boolean value)

  Returns a hash code for a boolean value; compatible with Boolean.hashCode().

  Parameters:

  value - the value to hash

  Returns:

  a hash code value for a boolean value.

  Since:

  1.8

• 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.

  Overrides:

  equals in class Object

  Parameters:

  obj - the object to compare with.

  Returns:

  true if the Boolean objects represent the same value; false otherwise.

  See Also:

  Object.hashCode(), HashMap

• getBoolean

  public static boolean getBoolean(String name)

  Returns true if and only if the system property named by the argument exists and is equal to the string "true". (Beginning with version 1.0.2 of the Java^TM platform, the test of this string is case insensitive.) A system property is accessible through getProperty, a method defined by the System class.

  If there is no property with the specified name, or if the specified name is empty or null, then false is returned.

  Parameters:

  name - the system property name.

  Returns:

  the boolean value of the system property.

  Throws:

  SecurityException - for the same reasons as System.getProperty

  See Also:

  System.getProperty(java.lang.String), System.getProperty(java.lang.String, java.lang.String)

• compareTo

  public int compareTo(Boolean b)

  Compares this Boolean instance with another.

  Specified by:

  compareTo in interface Comparable<Boolean>

  Parameters:

  b - the Boolean instance to be compared

  Returns:

  zero if this object represents the same boolean value as the argument; a positive value if this object represents true and the argument represents false; and a negative value if this object represents false and the argument represents true

  Throws:

  NullPointerException - if the argument is null

• compare

  public static int compare(boolean x,
                            boolean y)

  Compares two boolean values. The value returned is identical to what would be returned by:

      Boolean.valueOf(x).compareTo(Boolean.valueOf(y))
   

  Parameters:

  x - the first boolean to compare

  y - the second boolean to compare

  Returns:

  the value 0 if x == y; a value less than 0 if !x && y; and a value greater than 0 if x && !y

  Since:

• logicalAnd

  public static boolean logicalAnd(boolean a,
                                   boolean b)

  Returns the result of applying the logical AND operator to the specified boolean operands.

  Parameters:

  a - the first operand

  b - the second operand

  Returns:

  the logical AND of a and b

• logicalOr

  public static boolean logicalOr(boolean a,
                                  boolean b)

  Returns the result of applying the logical OR operator to the specified boolean operands.

  Parameters:

  a - the first operand

  b - the second operand

  Returns:

  the logical OR of a and b

  Returns the result of applying the logical XOR operator to the specified boolean operands.

  Parameters:

  a - the first operand

  b - the second operand

  Returns:

  the logical XOR of a and b
