Convert.ToString Method (Boolean)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Converts the value of the specified Boolean to its equivalent String representation.

Namespace:  System
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Shared Function ToString ( _
    value As Boolean _
) As String
public static string ToString(
    bool value
)

Parameters

Return Value

Type: System.String
The String equivalent of the value of value.

Remarks

This implementation is identical to Boolean.ToString. It returns Boolean.TrueString for true values and Boolean.FalseString for false values.

Examples

The following example illustrates the conversion of a Boolean to a String, using ToString. It also illustrates that the string returned by the conversion equals either Boolean.TrueString or Boolean.FalseString.

Dim falseFlag As Boolean = False
Dim trueFlag As Boolean = True

outputBlock.Text += Convert.ToString(falseFlag) & vbCrLf
outputBlock.Text += Convert.ToString(falseFlag).Equals(Boolean.FalseString) & vbCrLf
outputBlock.Text += Convert.ToString(trueFlag) & vbCrLf
outputBlock.Text += Convert.ToString(trueFlag).Equals(Boolean.TrueString) & vbCrLf
' The example displays the following output:
'       False
'       True
'       True
'       True      
bool falseFlag = false;
bool trueFlag = true;

outputBlock.Text += Convert.ToString(falseFlag) + "\n";
outputBlock.Text += Convert.ToString(falseFlag).Equals(Boolean.FalseString) + "\n";
outputBlock.Text += Convert.ToString(trueFlag) + "\n";
outputBlock.Text += Convert.ToString(trueFlag).Equals(Boolean.TrueString) + "\n";
// The example displays the following output:
//       False
//       True
//       True
//       True
