TXTextControl.WPF.BooleanConverter Class - TX Text Control .NET for WPF

The BooleanConverter class provides a way to convert a value to a boolean value. The converter returns true when the specified parameter is the string representation of the value. This is useful with data binding to place a checkmark in menus or to check or uncheck a toggle button. The class can be used in XAML as a static resource to automatically convert bound property values. Supported types are: System.Enum, int, int?, bool?, char and char?.
