Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant	Description
ANY	Every base type, with no restriction.
BITS	The binary base types: Binary and Byte.
BOOLEAN	Only the boolean base type.
COLLECTION	The collection base types List and Set (not Map, tracked separately since its key is always String).
COMPLEX	Only the Property base type: a reference to another Property-family type.
DATE	Only the date base type.
MAP	Only the Map base type.
NUMERIC	The numeric base types: Integer, Short, Long, Float, Double.
STRING	Only the string base type.

Method Summary

Method Detail

values

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static PropertyTypeName.BaseTypeGroup 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

getGroup

public PropertyTypeName.BaseType[] getGroup()

Returns the group of base types.

Returns:

The group of base types.

getDescription

public String getDescription()

Returns a human-readable description of this group, e.g. for documentation generation.

Returns:

The description.
