Method Detail

values

public static FieldPersistenceType[] 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 (FieldPersistenceType c : FieldPersistenceType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static FieldPersistenceType 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

fromValue

public static FieldPersistenceType fromValue(int value)

Method fromValue().

Parameters:

value - The actual value as int.

Returns:

the constant for this value.

fromValue

public static FieldPersistenceType fromValue(short value)

Method fromValue.

Parameters:

The - actual value.

Returns:

the constant for this value.

value

public short value()

Method value.

Returns:

the value of this constant.
