Enum EntityKind

java.lang.Object
  java.lang.Enum<EntityKind>
      edu.nps.moves.disenum.EntityKind

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<EntityKind>

public enum EntityKind
extends java.lang.Enum<EntityKind>

Enumeration values for EntityKind The enumeration values are generated from the SISO DIS XML EBV document (R35), which was obtained from http://discussions.sisostds.org/default.asp?action=10&fd=31

Note that this has two ways to look up an enumerated instance from a value: a fast but brittle array lookup, and a slower and more garbage-intensive, but safer, method. if you want to minimize memory use, get rid of one or the other.

lookup

public static EntityKind[] lookup

This is an array, with each slot corresponding to an enumerated value. This is a fast but brittle way to look up enumerated values. If there is no enumeration corresponding to the value it will fail, and it will also fail if the index it out of range of the array. But it is fast, and generates less garbage than the alternative of using getEnumerationForValue(). It should be used only in real-time environments, and be careful even then.

Use as EntityKind.lookup[aVal] to get the enumeration that corresponds to a value.

In non-realtime environments, the prefered method is getEnumerationForValue().

Method Detail

values

public static final EntityKind[] values()

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

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static EntityKind valueOf(java.lang.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:

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

getDescriptionForValue

public static java.lang.String getDescriptionForValue(int aVal)

Returns the string description associated with the enumerated instance with this value. If there is no enumerated instance for this value, the string Invalid enumeration: is returned.

getEnumerationForValue

public static EntityKind getEnumerationForValue(int aVal)
                                         throws edu.nps.moves.siso.EnumNotFoundException

Returns the enumerated instance with this value. If there is no enumerated instance for this value, the exception is thrown.

Throws:

edu.nps.moves.siso.EnumNotFoundException

enumerationForValueExists

public static boolean enumerationForValueExists(int aVal)

Returns true if there is an enumerated instance for this value, false otherwise.

getValue

public int getValue()

Returns the enumerated value for this enumeration

getDescription

public java.lang.String getDescription()

Returns a text descriptioni for this enumerated value. This is usually used as the basis for the enumeration name.
