      • ZERO

        public static final BooleanToken ZERO
        A zero valued BooleanToken
    • Constructor Detail

      • BooleanToken

        public BooleanToken​(BooleanValued value)
        Constructs a new token with the boolean value in the given container.

        It is generally preferable to use getToken(BooleanValued) instead.

        Parameters:
        value - a BooleanValued containing the desired value
      • BooleanToken

        public BooleanToken​(boolean value)
        Constructs a new token with the given non-null boolean value. If a null valued token is desired, use NULL.

        It is generally preferable to use getToken(boolean) instead.

        Parameters:
        value - the boolean value of the token
    • Method Detail

      • getToken

        public static BooleanToken getToken​(BooleanValued value)
        Returns a token with the boolean value in the given container. This method does not construct a new object, but returns the appropriate defined constant token instead.
        Parameters:
        value - a BooleanValued containing the desired value
        Returns:
        a token with the specified value
      • getToken

        public static BooleanToken getToken​(boolean value)
        Returns a token with the given non-null value boolean value. This method does not construct a new object, but returns the appropriate defined constant token instead.
        Parameters:
        value - the boolean value of the token
        Returns:
        a non-null token with the specified value
      • asObject

        public Boolean asObject()
        Gets the value of the token as an object.
        Returns:
        an object representing the token value, null if the token is null valued.
      • equals

        public boolean equals​(Object obj)
        Description copied from interface: DataToken
        Indicates whether another object is equal to this token. Two null valued tokens are considered equal. This differs from the behavior of TokenComparator.equal(TokenValued,TokenValued) but makes it possible to store DataTokens in Maps.
        Specified by:
        equals in interface DataToken
        Overrides:
        equals in class Object
        Parameters:
        obj - the object to compare
        Returns:
        true if the other object is a token of the same type and contains the same value, false otherwise.
      • hashCode

        public int hashCode()
        Description copied from interface: DataToken
        Returns a hash code for the token. This value is guaranteed to be consistent with that returned by TokenConverter.asHashCode(TokenValued).
        Specified by:
        hashCode in interface DataToken
        Overrides:
        hashCode in class Object
        Returns:
        a hash code value for the token
      • parse

        public static BooleanToken parse​(String value)
        Converts a string representation of a boolean value into a token.
        Parameters:
        value - a string value to interpret as a boolean; see Boolean.valueOf(String).
        Returns:
        a token with the specified value
      • isZero

        public final boolean isZero()
        Description copied from interface: ScalarValued
        Indicates whether the value is the zero value for the type. Zero values are not stored in sparse representation formats.
        Specified by:
        isZero in interface ScalarValued
        Returns:
        true if the value is the zero value, false otherwise.
      • asBoolean

        public final boolean asBoolean()
        Description copied from interface: BooleanValued
        Gets the contained boolean value.
        Specified by:
        asBoolean in interface BooleanValued
        Returns:
        the contained value as a boolean. If null valued, as indicated by TokenValued.isNull(), false is returned.
      • isNull

        public final boolean isNull()
        Description copied from interface: TokenValued
        Indicates whether the token is null valued. Tokens support null values analogous to SQL. Before accessing the value of the container, it is usually best to ensure it is not null valued using this method.
        Specified by:
        isNull in interface TokenValued
        Returns:
        true if the token is null valued, false otherwise
