Java Utililty Methods Byte Array to Boolean

boolean bytesToBoolean(byte[] buffer)
This function converts the bytes in a byte array to its corresponding boolean value.

return bytesToBoolean(buffer, 0);

boolean[] bytesToBooleanArray(byte[] input)
A method that performs the same function as the bytesToBooleanArray() method but is not limited by input and output size.

boolean[] out = new boolean[input.length * 8];
int pos = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < input.length; i++) {
 for (int j = 0; j < 8; j++, pos++) {
 if ((input[i] & BIT_FLAGS[j]) == BIT_FLAGS[j])
 out[pos] = true;
 else
 out[pos] = false;
...

boolean[] bytesToBooleans(byte[] bytes)
Converts a byte[] into a boolean[] Each bit is converted into a boolean value and placed in a boolean[].

int tempValue = 0;
boolean[] booleans = new boolean[bytes.length * 8];
for (int b = bytes.length - 1; b >= 0; b--) {
 for (int j = 0; j < 8; j++) {
 tempValue = (bytes[b] >> j) & 0x01;
 if (tempValue == 1) {
 booleans[((bytes.length - 1 - b) * 8) + j] = true;
 } else {
...

boolean byteToBoolean(byte[] b)
byte To Boolean

if ((b[0] & 0xFF) == 0) {
 return false;
} else {
 return true;

boolean[] byteToBoolean(byte[] byt)
Convert an array of bytes to booleans

boolean[] bool = new boolean[byt.length];
for (int i = 0; i < byt.length; i += 1) {
 bool[i] = byt[i] == 'T';
return bool;

boolean[] byteToBoolean(byte[] values)
byte To Boolean

if (values == null) {
 return null;
boolean[] results = new boolean[values.length];
for (int i = 0; i < values.length; i++) {
 results[i] = (values[i] != 0);
return results;
