Method Detail

intEnumToString

public static String intEnumToString(Class ernumer,
                                     int value)

Attempts to convert an int enumerated value to a string. Conflicts might occur if there are multiple public static final int field with the same value within the class. In this case, we return the first one.

create

public static Object create(Class enumer,
                            String value)

Creates an enum value from a string. Returns the object equal to the public static final field of the class with the same name as the passed string (case insensitive match). Returns null if it cannot match the field.

Parameters:

c - class of the enum (e.g. "Color")

value - name of the enum value (e.g. "BLUE")

Returns:

the acutal enum object (e.g. Color.BLUE object).

main
