Method Details

values

public static SerializationContext[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static SerializationContext valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this class. (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 class has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

matches

public boolean matches(SerializationContext[] serializationContexts)

Does the given array of serializationContexts match this one?

Either an exact match, or SerializationContext.ALL will suffice

Parameters:

serializationContexts - the serializationContexts to test against

Returns:

true if there is a matching context
