Enum Constant Detail

INSTANCE

public static final ReflectMember.Result INSTANCE

The result should be used to create and return a new ReflectClass instance. Depending on the data type, this would search for a class if the data is a String, or simply use it as is if the data is a Class, or be used as a receiver if the data is an instance of some sort.

The newly created ReflectClass instance will be returned to the caller instead of the data

RECEIVER

public static final ReflectMember.Result RECEIVER

The result should be used as a receiver for the current associated ReflectClass instance. The data itself will also be returned just like when using DATA

DATA

public static final ReflectMember.Result DATA

The result will not be used for anything. This will simply return the data to the caller

Method Detail

values

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static ReflectMember.Result 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
