# Interface Connector.BooleanArgument

All Superinterfaces:
  `Connector.Argument, Serializable`

- ## Method Details

  - ### setValue

    void setValue(boolean value)
    Sets the value of the argument.

  - ### isValid

    boolean isValid(String value)
    Performs basic sanity check of argument.
    Specified by:
      `isValid` in interface `Connector.Argument`
    Returns:
      `true` if value is a string representation of a boolean value.
    See Also:
      - `stringValueOf(boolean)`

  - ### stringValueOf

    String stringValueOf(boolean value)
    Return the string representation of the `value` parameter. Does not set or examine the current value of `this` instance.
    Returns:
      the localized String representation of the boolean value.

  - ### booleanValue

    boolean booleanValue()
    Return the value of the argument as a boolean. Since the argument may not have been set or may have an invalid value `isValid(String)` should be called on `Connector.Argument.value()` to check its validity. If it is invalid the boolean returned by this method is undefined.
    Returns:
      the value of the argument as a boolean.
