Enum Validator.Action

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<Validator.Action>

net.shibboleth.metadata.validate.Validator.Action

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<Validator.Action>

Enclosing interface:

Validator<V>

public static enum Validator.Action
extends Enum<Validator.Action>

Validator instances are normally applied in sequence in a chain of responsibility pattern orchestrated by the caller. The sequence is regarded as completed when all validators have been called, or when the first returns a DONE value. This can be used to short-circuit evaluation in the case where the problem detected would invalidate subsequent tests.

Method Detail

values

public static Validator.Action[] 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 (Validator.Action c : Validator.Action.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static Validator.Action 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
