## Syntax

public boolean getBoolean(int columnIndex)  
```  
  
#### Parameters  
 *columnIndex*  
  
 An **int** that indicates the column index.  
  
## Return Value  
 A **boolean** value.  
  
## Exceptions

## Remarks  
 This getBoolean method is specified by the getBoolean method in the java.sql.ResultSet interface.  
  
 This method is supported only on number and character data types. It converts values "1", 1, and "**true**" to **true**, and values "0", 0, and "**false**" to **false**. For all other values the behavior is undefined.
