Enum Constant Detail

MAP

public static final PropertyValue.ValueType MAP

A multi valued property value, which contains named child properties.

ARRAY

A multi valued property value, which contains unnamed child properties.

VALUE

public static final PropertyValue.ValueType VALUE

Method Detail

values

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static PropertyValue.ValueType 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
