Remarks

The componentAlternateColumn data value is parsed as follows:

1. If componentAlternateColumn was not specified, false is used.
2. Otherwise:
   1. All leading and trailing whitespace is removed from the value.
   2. If the resulting string value is "True", "Yes", "Alternate", "Alt", or "A" (case-insensitive), then true is used.
   3. Otherwise, if the value is "False" or "No" (case-insensitive), then false is used.
   4. Otherwise, if the value can be parsed as an integer, then true is used if the integer value is non-zero; false is used if the integer value is zero.
   5. Otherwise, true is used if the trimmed string value is not empty; false is used if it is empty.
