Get value from a Enum constant that is declared with value(s)-CodePudding

I have the following Java enum:

public static enum ScheduleType {
        ONE("one"),
        SEC("sec"),
        THUR("thur");

        private ScheduleType() {
        }
    }

I need to figure out how I can get use this get value code:

....ScheduleType().getValue()

How I can implement getValue() method in order to get the value as String?

CodePudding user response：

public static enum ScheduleType {
    ONE("one"),
    SEC("sec"),
    THUR("thur");

    private final String value;

    private ScheduleType(String value) {
        this.value = value;
    }

    public String getValue() {
        return value;
    }
}

CodePudding user response：

Your enums just needs to have some private members to store the values and some public methods to access them from outside the enum.

here's some sample code from a project i'm working on -

public enum CitationFields {

    SUMMARY_TEXT("summary", 1), 
    SECTION_TEXT("section", 2);

    private final String fieldName;
    private final int sortOrder;


    CitationFields(String summary, int sortOrder) {
        this.fieldName = summary;
        this.sortOrder = sortOrder;
    }


    public String getFieldName() {
        return fieldName;
    }

    public int getSortOrder() {
        return sortOrder;
    }
}


int sortOrder = CitationFields.SUMMARY_TEXT.getSortOrder();
