Boolean constructor
public Boolean([value:Object])
Creates a Boolean object. If you omit the value parameter, the Boolean object is initialized
with a value of false. If you specify a value for the value parameter, the method evaluates it
and returns the result as a Boolean value according to the rules in the global Boolean()
function.
Parameters
value:Object [optional] - Any expression. The default value is false.
Example
The following code creates a new empty Boolean object called myBoolean:
var myBoolean:Boolean = new Boolean();
toString (Boolean.toString method)
public toString() : String
Returns the string representation ("true" or "false") of the Boolean object.
Returns
String - A string; "true" or "false".
Example
This example creates a variable of type Boolean and uses toString() to convert the value to a
string for use in the trace statement:
var myBool:Boolean = true;
trace("The value of the Boolean myBool is: " + myBool.toString());
myBool = false;
trace("The value of the Boolean myBool is: " + myBool.toString());
valueOf (Boolean.valueOf method)
public valueOf() : Boolean
Returns true if the primitive value type of the specified Boolean object is true; false
otherwise.
Returns
Boolean - A Boolean value.
