             Summary: New BooleanUtils method toBoolean(String, String)
                 Key: LANG-975
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-975
             Project: Commons Lang
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: lang.*
    Affects Versions: 3.2.1
            Reporter: Stephan Knitelius
            Priority: Minor


The BooleanUtils#toBoolean(String) works nicely for common boolean String 
notations.

However there are many more boolean String notations such as 1/0, ja/nein 
etc... 

I know this can be achieved via BooleanUtils#toBoolean(String,String,String), 
however it would be nice to have another Method that only matches the true 
case, so that invalid cases are automatically matched to false. 

eg:

BooleanUtils.toBoolean("1", "1")    = true
BooleanUtils.toBoolean("foo", "1") = false
