Enum Constant Detail

CONSTRAINT_ANNOTATION

public static final ConstraintHelper.AnnotationType CONSTRAINT_ANNOTATION

Given annotation is a constraint annotation (e.g. @Min).

MULTI_VALUED_CONSTRAINT_ANNOTATION

public static final ConstraintHelper.AnnotationType MULTI_VALUED_CONSTRAINT_ANNOTATION

Given annotation is a multi-valued annotation (e.g. @List({ @Min(10), @Min(value=20, groups= Special.class}) }) .

GRAPH_VALIDATION_ANNOTATION

public static final ConstraintHelper.AnnotationType GRAPH_VALIDATION_ANNOTATION

Given annotation is the @Valid annotation.

CONSTRAINT_META_ANNOTATION

public static final ConstraintHelper.AnnotationType CONSTRAINT_META_ANNOTATION

Given annotation is the @Constraint meta-annotation.

GROUP_SEQUENCE_PROVIDER_ANNOTATION

public static final ConstraintHelper.AnnotationType GROUP_SEQUENCE_PROVIDER_ANNOTATION

Given annotation is the @GroupSequenceProvider annotation.

NO_CONSTRAINT_ANNOTATION

public static final ConstraintHelper.AnnotationType NO_CONSTRAINT_ANNOTATION

Given annotation is not related to the BV API (e.g. @Resource).

Method Detail

values

public static ConstraintHelper.AnnotationType[] 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 (ConstraintHelper.AnnotationType c : ConstraintHelper.AnnotationType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static ConstraintHelper.AnnotationType 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
