Hint
----

[](#hint)

First of all, make sure you don't need just a [simple built-in bool validation](http://php.net/manual/en/function.filter-var.php).

Internally behaves same way as (bool)$value, but

- non-scalar values (arrays, resources, objects without \_\_toString etc.) raises exception
- objects with \_\_toString magic method are converted to string by that, then to bool
- null *can* be rejected by raise of an exception, *if* desired

```
