Creates a new Boolean value.

Syntax

boolObj = new Boolean([boolValue])

Arguments

boolObj

Required. The variable name to which the Boolean object is assigned.

boolValue

Optional. The initial Boolean value for the new object. If Boolvalue is omitted, or is false, 0, null, NaN, or an empty string, the initial value of the Boolean object is false. Otherwise, the initial value is true.

Remarks

The Boolean object is a wrapper for the Boolean data type. JScript implicitly uses the Boolean object whenever a Boolean data type is converted to a Boolean object.

You rarely call the Boolean object explicitly.
