java - Is it possible to use XOR to detect if exactly one of multiple conditions is true?

itemprop="text">

E.g.,

if
            (bool1 ^ bool2 ^ bool3 ^ bool4)
{
 // Do
            whatever

}

It
should execute only if exactly one of the conditions is met.

Answer

Add the bools together as integers and check
if they equal 1.

In a language where casting
from a boolean to an integer doesn't work, such as Java, the more long winded option
is:

if ((bool1 ? 1 : 0) + (bool2 ? 1 : 0) + (bool3 ? 1
            : 0) + (bool4 ? 1 : 0) == 1) {

 // only runs when one of bool 1-4
            is
            true
}

However,
in other languages where casting a boolean to an integer is valid, you can do the
following:

if ((int)(bool1) + (int)(bool2) + (int)(bool3) +
            (int)(bool4) == 1) {
 // only runs when one of bool 1-4 is
            true
}
