Boolean

Synopsis

This is a simple value type that contains either true or false. When converting to or from a string or comparing with a string, the TrueString and FalseString fields are used (these return True and False). This type is available in C# through the bool alias.

public struct Boolean : IComparable, IConvertible {
// Public Static Fields
   public static readonly field string FalseString;              // =False
   public static readonly field string TrueString;               // =True
                  // Public Static Methods
   public static method bool Parse(string value);  
// Public Instance Methods
   public method int CompareTo(object obj);                     // implements IComparable
   public override method bool Equals(object obj);              // overrides ValueType
   public override method int GetHashCode();                     // overrides ValueType
   public method TypeCode GetTypeCode();                         // implements IConvertible
   public override method string ToString();                     // overrides ValueType
   public method string ToString(IFormatProvider provider);     // implements IConvertible
}
