使用Apache Commons库中的BooleanUtils类:

String[] values= new String[]{"y","Y","n","N","Yes","YES","yes","no","No","NO","true","false","True","False","TRUE","FALSE",null};
for(String booleanStr : values){
    System.out.println("Str ="+ booleanStr +": boolean =" +BooleanUtils.toBoolean(booleanStr));
}

结果:

Str =N: boolean =false
Str =Yes: boolean =true
Str =YES: boolean =true
Str =yes: boolean =true
Str =no: boolean =false
Str =No: boolean =false
Str =NO: boolean =false
Str =true: boolean =true
Str =false: boolean =false
Str =True: boolean =true
Str =False: boolean =false
Str =TRUE: boolean =true
Str =FALSE: boolean =false
Str =null: boolean =false

这会让你知道该怎么做。

这是我从Java文档中得到的:

方法的细节 parseBoolean parseBoolean(String s) 将字符串参数解析为布尔值。如果字符串参数不为空，返回的布尔值表示true，并且忽略大小写，等于字符串"true"。 参数: s -包含要解析的布尔表示的字符串 返回:由字符串参数表示的布尔值 自: 1．5

使用Apache Commons库中的BooleanUtils类:

String[] values= new String[]{"y","Y","n","N","Yes","YES","yes","no","No","NO","true","false","True","False","TRUE","FALSE",null};
for(String booleanStr : values){
    System.out.println("Str ="+ booleanStr +": boolean =" +BooleanUtils.toBoolean(booleanStr));
}

结果:

Str =N: boolean =false
Str =Yes: boolean =true
Str =YES: boolean =true
Str =yes: boolean =true
Str =no: boolean =false
Str =No: boolean =false
Str =NO: boolean =false
Str =true: boolean =true
Str =false: boolean =false
Str =True: boolean =true
Str =False: boolean =false
Str =TRUE: boolean =true
Str =FALSE: boolean =false
Str =null: boolean =false

除了KLE这个优秀的答案，我们还可以做一些更灵活的事情:

boolean b = string.equalsIgnoreCase("true") || string.equalsIgnoreCase("t") || 
        string.equalsIgnoreCase("yes") || string.equalsIgnoreCase("y") || 
        string.equalsIgnoreCase("sure") || string.equalsIgnoreCase("aye") || 
        string.equalsIgnoreCase("oui") || string.equalsIgnoreCase("vrai");

(受到zlajo的回答启发……: -))

public static boolean stringToBool(String s) {
        s = s.toLowerCase();
        Set<String> trueSet = new HashSet<String>(Arrays.asList("1", "true", "yes"));
        Set<String> falseSet = new HashSet<String>(Arrays.asList("0", "false", "no"));

        if (trueSet.contains(s))
            return true;
        if (falseSet.contains(s))
            return false;

        throw new IllegalArgumentException(s + " is not a boolean.");
    }

我把字符串转换成布尔值的方法。

我们创建了soyuz-to库来简化这个问题(将X转换为Y)，它只是一组类似问题的SO答案。使用库来解决如此简单的问题可能有些奇怪，但它确实有助于解决许多类似的情况。

import io.thedocs.soyuz.to;

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

请检查它-它非常简单，有很多其他有用的功能
