!my_bool vs bool=false

I was under the impression that

Code:

 !my_bool;

would change my_bool from true to false or false to true... does it not work this way?

Code:

!aBool;

Does nothing.

Code:

bool foo = true;

foo = !foo; // foo is false
foo = !foo; // foo is true

I guess I should have included more code:

Code:

bool my_bool = true;
do
  {
     //... if, else if,...
     else
     {
         my_bool = !my_bool;
     }
  }while(my_bool);

...but it appears I had a different problem, which I found. tyvm for the reply
