Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant and Description
BEAN If type is 'bean' the method must not be static, and on every call to getFunctionValue, a new object is instantiated.
CLASS If type is 'class' the method must be static, or if it is not static, there will be instantiated one object.
INSTANCE If type is 'instance' the method must not be static, and on every call to getFunctionValue, a new object is instantiated.
SINGLETON If type is 'singleton', then the static method 'getInstance' will be called to get the one instance, unless the method is static.

Enum Constant Detail

CLASS

public static final SetFunction.Type CLASS

If type is 'class' the method must be static, or if it is not static, there will be instantiated one object.

INSTANCE

public static final SetFunction.Type INSTANCE

If type is 'instance' the method must not be static, and on every call to getFunctionValue, a new object is instantiated.

BEAN

public static final SetFunction.Type BEAN

If type is 'bean' the method must not be static, and on every call to getFunctionValue, a new object is instantiated. There is not need to explicitely declare the parameters.

SINGLETON

public static final SetFunction.Type SINGLETON

If type is 'singleton', then the static method 'getInstance' will be called to get the one instance, unless the method is static.

Method Detail

values

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static SetFunction.Type 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
