System.Boolean.ToString Method

Converts the value of this instance to its equivalent string representation (either "True" or "False").

Syntax

public string ToString (IFormatProvider provider)

Parameters

provider
(Reserved) An IFormatProvider object.

Returns

bool.TrueString if the value of this instance is true, or bool.FalseString if the value of this instance is false.

Remarks

The provider parameter is reserved. It does not participate in the execution of this method. This means that the bool.ToString(IFormatProvider) method, unlike most methods with a provider parameter, does not reflect culture-specific settings.

This method returns the constants "True" or "False". Note that XML is case-sensitive, and that the XML specification recognizes "true" and "false" as the valid set of Boolean values. If the string object returned by the bool.ToString(IFormatProvider) method is to be written to an XML file, its string.ToLower method should be called first to convert it to lowercase.
