Integer to Boolean conversion is opposite from expected behavior

[Mike Zatko]

I have a db table that has a field that has a SMALLINT datatype. This 
field is being used as a true/false flag. 0 would be true, anything else 
would be false as would typically happen in C. I set up a result map 
that looks like the following:

   <resultMap id="getBenefitAppliesMap" 
class="com.boscovs.commerce.promotion.dao.benefit.apply.BenefitApplyDAO">
       <result property="totalOrderOn" column="TOTAL_ORDER_ON" 
jdbcType="SMALLINT" javaType="java.lang.Boolean" nullValue="false"/>
   </resultMap>

I was thrilled that it worked, but the results were opposite of what I 
expected. A '0' value would denote false, while anything else was true. 
Anybody know whats going on?
