Enum T2ReferenceType

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<T2ReferenceType>

org.apache.taverna.reference.T2ReferenceType

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<T2ReferenceType>

public enum T2ReferenceType
extends Enum<T2ReferenceType>

The T2Reference interface is used to identify several different kinds of information, namely ReferenceSet, IdentifiedList and ErrorDocument. Because the top level reference service needs to determine which sub-service to delegate to when resolving references we carry this information in each T2Reference in the form of one of these enumerated types.

Enum Constant Detail

ReferenceSet

public static final T2ReferenceType ReferenceSet

A reference to a ReferenceSet

IdentifiedList

public static final T2ReferenceType IdentifiedList

A reference to an IdentifiedList of other T2References

ErrorDocument

public static final T2ReferenceType ErrorDocument

A reference to an ErrorDocument

Method Detail

values

public static T2ReferenceType[] 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 (T2ReferenceType c : T2ReferenceType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static T2ReferenceType 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
