Method used for coercing an object to a boolean value,
thanks to an asBoolean() method added on types.
object - to coerce to a boolean valueCompares the two objects handling nulls gracefully and performing numeric type coercion if required
Determines whether the value object is a Class object representing a subclass of java.lang.Enum. Uses class name check to avoid breaking on pre-Java 5 JREs.
