Description

The method readBoolean in SwappedDataInputStream returns true when the byte is zero, false otherwise. In accordance with the contract in java.io.DataInput, true should indicate a non-zero byte. SwappedDataInputStream is for reading Little Endian formats, it should not change the boolean value of individual bytes.
