Enum Constant Detail

MANDATORY

public static final Resolution MANDATORY

A mandatory requirement forbids the bundle to resolve when the requirement is not satisfied.

An optional requirement allows a bundle to resolve even if the requirement is not satisfied.

DEFAULT

public static final Resolution DEFAULT

Default element value for annotation. This is used to distinguish the default value for an element and should not otherwise be used.

Method Detail

values

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static Resolution 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

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Enum<Resolution>
