Dan Haywood commented on ISIS-431:
----------------------------------
The workaround is to declare the type as Boolean, annotate @Optional, and use
(val != null && val.booleanValue()) to determine if true:
void foo(@Optional Boolean flag) {
setFoo(flag !=null && flag.booleanValue());
}
> A boolean atribute should never be mandatory
