Method Detail

values

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static PropertyComparisonType 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

from

public static PropertyComparisonType from(String value)
                                   throws IllegalArgumentException

Makes a property comparison type from a supplied string value.
I null or an empty string is supplied, PropertyComparisonType.NONE is returned.

Parameters:

value - the value

Returns:

the property comparison type

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the value was invalid
