All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<Category>

public enum Category
extends java.lang.Enum<Category>

Category enumerates the algebraic category of each operation. CONSTRUCTOR denotes an algebraic constructor, which is either an object constructor, or a primitive method that forces the object into a unique state. TRANSFORMER denotes a derived method, whose result could also be achieved by primitive methods. OBSERVER denotes an access method which has no other effect on the test object.

Method Detail

values

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static Category valueOf(java.lang.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:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
