Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hi,

I'm using xml and JMS to query a remote system.
One of the values in the remote system that I am interested in is a boolean value. I do not know this field is defaulted in the remote system so I want to use a Boolean object to represent it. I.e I want it to be null is no value is available in the remote system.

Could any of you give me a quick run down on how to go abount doing this or point me to a tutorial.

Is there another way of doing what I am trying to do?

Appreciate any help.

Cheers,
Nim
