Boolean Converter

See Also | Tutorials

Converts between java.lang.String values in your component properties and data types of java.lang.Boolean or the Java boolean primitive type. The conversion usually applies to the property of a component used to display values and to pick up values entered by users, such as the text property of a Text Field component.

An example is binding a JavaServer Faces component to to a database column of type BOOLEAN. When you bind a component, the IDE normally identifies the data type for you and sets the appropriate converter when you establish a binding to the value property.  However, you can also add this converter manually by setting the component's converter property.
