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

toQNameURI

public URI toQNameURI()

Return the QName value for this enum.

Specified by:

toQNameURI in interface ControlledVocabulary
