Is there a utility method in Java which converts Boolean into boolean and automatically handles null reference to Boolean as false?

You can use the class Boolean instead if you want to use null values. Boolean is a reference type, that's the reason you can assign null to a Boolean "variable". Example: Boolean testvar = null; if (testvar == null) { ...}
Now, to convert it to Boolean object, use the valueOf() method. Boolean res = Boolean. valueOf(val); Let us now see the complete example to convert boolean value to Boolean.
Nullable boolean can be null, or having a value “true” or “false”. Before accessing the value, we should verify if the variable is null or not. This can be done with the classical check : if … else …
To convert Boolean Primitive to Boolean object, use the valueOf() method in Java.
How about:
boolean x = Boolean.TRUE.equals(value); ? That's a single expression, which will only evaluate to true if value is non-null and a true-representing Boolean reference.
