Is Boolean the same as bool in a WCF contract

Question

If I change an existing DataMember property as part of a WCF contract from Boolean to bool, is this then considered as a change/breach of contract?

There is no difference between Boolean and bool. They are one and the same. Twins. Compatriots. Brothers in Arms. Drinking Buddies. Compardres. Smiths & Wessons, Turner and Hooch. Dumb and Dumber.

bool is an alias for System.Boolean just as string is an alias for System.String

No, as they are same therefore you won't face any change.
