BooleanValidator

BooleanValidator verifies a parameter is a valid boolean Accepted values are string 0/1, int 0/1, bool true/false, string yes/no, string true/false, string on/off - basically all values that Toolkit::literalize() will accept.

On success the value is cast to a native bool and written back into the request under the ‘export’ parameter’s name, or under the validator’s own argument name when ‘export’ is not configured.
