In Java, why is it possible to qualify an Enum Constant with another Enum Constant?
Date : March 29 2020, 07:55 AM
will be helpful for those in need When you access a static member of an object (including enums) in Java, the compiler effectively replaces the object with its static type. More concretely, class ExampleClass {
static int staticField;
static void staticMethod() {
ExampleClass example = new ExampleClass();
example.staticField; // Equivalent to ExampleClass.staticField;
example.staticMethod(); // Equivalent to ExampleClass.staticMethod();
}
}

generic method to turn an `enum constant name` back into an `enum constant`
Date : March 29 2020, 07:55 AM
Does that help How would the following method that happens to be named reverse be rewritten as a generic method that allows any enumerated type. , How about // Every enum class extends Enum<ThisEnumClassName>.
// Since we want T to be enum we must write it as "extends Enum"
// but Enum is also generic and require type of store parameters
// so we need to describe it as Enum<T> which finally gives us - T extends Enum<T>
static <T extends Enum<T>> T reverse(String name, Class<T> clazz) {
for (T t : clazz.getEnumConstants())
if (t.name().equals(name))
return t;
return null;
}
Enum.valueOf(YourEnumClass.clazz, "ENUM_FIELD_NAME")

An enum constant contains all the enum constants of the same enum class

this one helps. Designers made a mistake when they first designed Java: static members, which belong to the class itself, and not to any instance of the class, can be accessible using an instance of the class. consider this class: class Foo {
public static int bar = 0;
}
int i = Foo.bar;
Foo foo = new Foo();
int i = foo.bar;
State state = State.enable;
State state2 = state.disable;
State state2 = State.enable.disable;
State state = null;
State[] allStates = state.values();
