	int value
)

Type: System::Int32

The 32-bit signed integer to convert.

Return Value

Type: System::Boolean

true if value is not zero; otherwise, false.

The following example converts an array of Int32 values to Boolean values.

array<int>^ numbers = gcnew array<int> { Int32::MinValue, -201649, -68, 0, 612, 4038907, 
                                         Int32::MaxValue };
bool result;

for each (int number in numbers)
{
   result = Convert::ToBoolean(number);                                 
   Console::WriteLine("{0,-15:N0}  -->  {1}", number, result);
}
// The example displays the following output:
//       -2,147,483,648   -->  True
//       -201,649         -->  True
//       -68              -->  True
//       0                -->  False
//       612              -->  True
//       4,038,907        -->  True
