           Summary: Request for MutableBoolean implementation
           Product: Commons
           Version: 2.1 Final
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Lang
        AssignedTo: commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: apache.org@msqr.us


I ran into a situation where a MutableBoolean implementation was actually useful and wondered if 
Commons Lang might consider adding the implementation. My example:

final MutableBoolean success = new MutableBoolean(false);
doSomething(new MyCallbackInterface() {
  public void callback() {
    // do something...
    success.setValue(true);
  });

Basically the ability to change the boolean's state within an inner class, where the declared object must 
be 'final'. Pretty obscure I realize, but this turned out to be quite useful in the application I was working 
on.
