/**
 * Base class that provides most of the functionality needed to implement a
 * {@link Binding} of a {@code boolean} value.
 * <p>
 * {@code BooleanBinding} provides a simple invalidation-scheme. An extending
 * class can register dependencies by calling {@link #bind(Observable...)}.
 * If One of the registered dependencies becomes invalid, this
 * {@code BooleanBinding} is marked as invalid. With
 * {@link #unbind(Observable...)} listening to dependencies can be stopped.
 * <p>
 * To provide a concrete implementation of this class, the method
 * {@link #computeValue()} has to be implemented to calculate the value of this
 * binding based on the current state of the dependencies. It is called when
 * {@link #get()} is called for an invalid binding.
 * <p>
 * See {@link DoubleBinding} for an example how this base class can be extended.
