Enum Constant Detail

PRIORITY_ONLY

public static final MatchElement.Order PRIORITY_ONLY

Priority-only ordering, used for first-pass comparison of context matchers.

PRIORITY_AND_DISTANCE

public static final MatchElement.Order PRIORITY_AND_DISTANCE

Full ordering of match elements, including type distance. Closer compares lower (higher priority).

Method Detail

values

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static MatchElement.Order 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
