Intead of using 1 and 0, can you use 'true' and 'false'? . In the package java.lang there is a class named Boolean which has two constructors. One of them uses a String as argument and creates a Boolean with true value if the given string is 'true' (ignoring case). If the string is null or has any other value it creates a false boolean variable.
