I am trying to use the 'Exists' services in Foundation->Files and the output is assigned to a process variable of type 'boolean'. However, it behaves like a string. Here is an assignment
concat("input=", /process_data/@subdirectoryName, ", directoryExists=", /process_data/@directoryExists,
", boolean(directoryExists)=", boolean(/process_data/@directoryExists), ", directoryExists = 'false' is ",
(/process_data/@directoryExists = 'false'), ", directoryExists = 'true' is ", (/process_data/@directoryExists = 'true'))
and here is the resulting output:
input=C:/NPDES/373128945342832, directoryExists=false, boolean(directoryExists)=true, directoryExists = 'false' is true, directoryExists = 'true' is false
So from what I can tell by the above a boolean type in LiveCycle is either a String "true" or a String "false" and the boolean() function always returns true() for a String argument.
