set aBoolean = aString.convertToBoolean()
set aBoolean = convertToBoolean(LITERAL)
Semantics
convertToBoolean() returns true if the string true is passed as parameter. false is returned for all other values. Alternatively, the figures 0 for false or 1 for true can be used as parameters. If the conversion is not possible, an error message is raised (for instance: NULL strings).
Substitutables
aString
Can be any variable or object attribute having the type String.
