How to convert String object to Boolean object?

Answer 1

We created soyuz-to library to simplify this problem (convert X to Y). It's just a set of SO answers for similar questions. This might be strange to use the library for such a simple problem, but it really helps in a lot of similar cases.

import io.thedocs.soyuz.to;

Boolean aBoolean = to.Boolean("true");

Please check it - it's very simple and has a lot of other useful features
