Enum Constant Detail

REPLACE_SIGNATURE

public static final ExternalAnnotationUtil.MergeStrategy REPLACE_SIGNATURE

Unconditionally replace the signature.

OVERWRITE_ANNOTATIONS

public static final ExternalAnnotationUtil.MergeStrategy OVERWRITE_ANNOTATIONS

Override existing annotations, keeping old annotations in locations that are not annotated in the new signature.

ADD_ANNOTATIONS

public static final ExternalAnnotationUtil.MergeStrategy ADD_ANNOTATIONS

Only add new annotations, never remove or overwrite existing annotations.

Method Detail

values

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static ExternalAnnotationUtil.MergeStrategy 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
