Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant and Description
ASCII 8-bit byte that contains a 7-bit ASCII code; the last byte must be NUL (binary zero)
BYTE 8-bit unsigned integer
DOUBLE Double precision (8-byte) IEEE format
FLOAT Single precision (4-byte) IEEE format
LONG 32-bit (4-byte) unsigned integer
RATIONAL Two LONGs: the first represents the numerator of a fraction; the second, the denominator
SBYTE An 8-bit signed (twos-complement) integer
SHORT 16-bit (2-byte) unsigned integer
SLONG A 32-bit (4-byte) signed (twos-complement) integer
SRATIONAL Two SLONG’s: the first represents the numerator of a fraction, the second the denominator
SSHORT A 16-bit (2-byte) signed (twos-complement) integer
UNDEFINED An 8-bit byte that may contain anything, depending on the definition of the field

Method Detail

values

public static FieldType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (FieldType c : FieldType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static FieldType valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

getValue

public int getValue()

Get the field type value

Returns:

field type value

getBytes

public int getBytes()

Get the number of bytes per value

Returns:

number of bytes

getFieldType

public static FieldType getFieldType(int fieldType)

Get the field type

Parameters:

fieldType - field type number

Returns:

field type
