I want to convert this sample C# code into a java code:
public enum myEnum {
ONE = "one",
TWO = "two",
};
Because I want to change this constant class into enum
public final class TestConstants {
public static String ONE = "one";
public static String TWO= "two";
}
public enum MyEnum {
ONE(1),
TWO(2);
private int value;
private MyEnum(int value) {
this.value = value;
}
public int getValue() {
return value;
}
}
In short - you can define any number of parameters for the enum as long as you provide constructor arguments (and set the values to the respective fields)
As Scott noted - the official enum documentation gives you the answer. Always start from the official documentation of language features and constructs.
Update: For strings the only difference is that your constructor argument is String, and you declare enums with TEST("test")
enums are classes in Java. They have an implicit ordinal value, starting at 0. If you want to store an additional field, then you do it like for any other class:
public enum MyEnum {
ONE(1),
TWO(2);
private final int value;
private MyEnum(int value) {
this.value = value;
}
public int getValue() {
return this.value;
}
}
Quite simply as follows:
/**
* #author The Elite Gentleman
*
*/
public enum MyEnum {
ONE("one"), TWO("two")
;
private final String value;
private MyEnum(final String value) {
this.value = value;
}
public String getValue() {
return value;
}
#Override
public String toString() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return getValue();
}
}
For more info, visit Enum Types from Oracle Java Tutorials. Also, bear in mind that enums have private constructor.
Update, since you've updated your post, I've changed my value from an int to a String.

Well, in java, you can also create a parameterized enum. Say you want to create a className enum, in which you need to store classCode as well as className, you can do that like this:
public enum ClassEnum {
ONE(1, "One"),
TWO(2, "Two"),
THREE(3, "Three"),
FOUR(4, "Four"),
FIVE(5, "Five")
;
private int code;
private String name;
private ClassEnum(int code, String name) {
this.code = code;
this.name = name;
}
public int getCode() {
return code;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
}
public enum MyEnum
{
ONE(1),
TWO(2);
private int value;
private MyEnum(int val){
value = val;
}
public int getValue(){
return value;
}
}
public enum NewEnum {
ONE("test"),
TWO("test");
private String s;
private NewEnum(String s) {
this.s = s);
}
public String getS() {
return this.s;
}
}

I want to create an enumeration that containt Integer variables , the result is needed to be something like this :
#AllArgsConstructor
#Getter
public enum Test {
1("Test1"),
2("Test2");
private final String value;
}
As far as I know there is no such thing like this in Java.
If you really need enum for that, you can do it in reverse:
public enum TestEnum {
TEST_1(1),
TEST_2(2);
private final int value;
TestEnum(int value) {
this.value = value;
}
public int getValue() {
return value;
}
}
I have a util class that keeps track of important system variables:
public static final String REQUEST_ADDRESS = "http.request.address";
public static final String REQUEST_PORT = "http.request.port";
public static final String get(String property) {
return System.getProperty(property);
}
And I can retrieve these values like so:
String port = SystemPropertyHelper.get(SystemPropertyHelper.REQUEST_PORT);
Is it possible, in Java, to get these like an enum?
REQUEST_PORT {
return System.getProperty("http.request.port");
}
String port = SystemPropertyHelper.REQUEST_PORT;
I'd solve it that way.
public static final String REQUEST_PORT = System.getProperty("http.request.port");
enum SystemPropertyHelper {
REQUEST_PORT("http.request.port"), ...;
private String key;
Config(String key) {
this.key = key;
}
public String get() {
return System.getProperty(key);
}
}
and use it like SystemPropertyHelper.REQUEST_PORT.get();
Sure, you could create an enum like this, which would give you access to the property name, and the value:
public enum SystemPropertyEnum {
REQUEST_PORT("http.request.port"),
REQUEST_ADDRESS("http.request.address");
private String propertyName;
private String value;
SystemPropertyEnum(final String propertyName) {
this.propertyName = propertyName;
this.value = System.getProperty(propertyName);
}
public String getPropertyName() {
return propertyName;
}
public String getValue() {
return value;
}
}
However, you could avoid the need to call a getter by just using public static final String variables for your properties, as #halloei suggests.
Also you can do something like this:
public enum Properties {
REQUEST_PORT("http.request.port"),
REQUEST_USE_SSL("http.request.ssl");
// Add others...
private final String value;
Properties(String value) {
this.value = System.getProperty(value);
}
public String getValue() {
return this.value;
}
}
This can be use like:
String port = Properties.REQUEST_PORT.getValue();
This question already has answers here:
Convert from enum ordinal to enum type
(15 answers)
Closed 7 years ago.
I've read a lot about how obtain the corresponding name of an enum from its value using java, but no example seems to work for me! What is wrong?
public class Extensions {
public enum RelationActiveEnum
{
Invited(0),
Active(1),
Suspended(2);
private final int value;
private RelationActiveEnum(final int value) {
this.value = value;
}
}
}
and in another class I use:
int dbValue = supp.ACTIVE;
Extensions.RelationActiveEnum enumValue(dbValue);
String stringName = enumValue.toString(); //Visible
// OR
int dbValuee = supp.ACTIVE;
String stringValue = Enum.GetName(typeof(RelationActiveEnum), dbValue);
I should work, right? but it doesn't!!!! it tells me that dbValue cannote be cast to RelationActiveEnum...
Say we have:
public enum MyEnum {
Test1, Test2, Test3
}
To get the name of a enum variable use name():
MyEnum e = MyEnum.Test1;
String name = e.name(); // Returns "Test1"
To get the enum from a (string) name, use valueOf():
String name = "Test1";
MyEnum e = Enum.valueOf(MyEnum.class, name);
If you require integer values to match enum fields, extend the enum class:
public enum MyEnum {
Test1(1), Test2(2), Test3(3);
public final int value;
MyEnum(final int value) {
this.value = value;
}
}
Now you can use:
MyEnum e = MyEnum.Test1;
int value = e.value; // = 1
And lookup the enum using the integer value:
MyEnum getValue(int value) {
for(MyEnum e: MyEnum.values()) {
if(e.value == value) {
return e;
}
}
return null;// not found
}
Since your 'value' also happens to match with ordinals you could just do:
public enum RelationActiveEnum {
Invited,
Active,
Suspended;
private final int value;
private RelationActiveEnum() {
this.value = ordinal();
}
}
And getting a enum from the value:
int value = 1;
RelationActiveEnum enumInstance = RelationActiveEnum.values()[value];
I guess an static method would be a good place to put this:
public enum RelationActiveEnum {
public static RelationActiveEnum fromValue(int value)
throws IllegalArgumentException {
try {
return RelationActiveEnum.values()[value]
} catch(ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException e) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Unknown enum value :"+ value);
}
}
}
Obviously this all falls apart if your 'value' isn't the same value as the enum ordinal.
You could create a lookup method. Not the most efficient (depending on the enum's size) but it works.
public static String getNameByCode(int code){
for(RelationActiveEnum e : RelationActiveEnum.values()){
if(code == e.value) return e.name();
}
return null;
}
And call it like this:
RelationActiveEnum.getNameByCode(3);
What you can do is
RelationActiveEnum ae = Enum.valueOf(RelationActiveEnum.class,
RelationActiveEnum.ACTIVE.name();
or
RelationActiveEnum ae = RelationActiveEnum.valueOf(
RelationActiveEnum.ACTIVE.name();
or
// not recommended as the ordinal might not match the value
RelationActiveEnum ae = RelationActiveEnum.values()[
RelationActiveEnum.ACTIVE.value];
By if you want to lookup by a field of an enum you need to construct a collection such as a List, an array or a Map.
public enum RelationActiveEnum {
Invited(0),
Active(1),
Suspended(2);
private final int code;
private RelationActiveEnum(final int code) {
this.code = code;
}
private static final Map<Integer, RelationActiveEnum> BY_CODE_MAP = new LinkedHashMap<>();
static {
for (RelationActiveEnum rae : RelationActiveEnum.values()) {
BY_CODE_MAP.put(rae.code, rae);
}
}
public static RelationActiveEnum forCode(int code) {
return BY_CODE_MAP.get(code);
}
}
allows you to write
String name = RelationActiveEnum.forCode(RelationActiveEnum.ACTIVE.code).name();
In my case value was not an integer but a String.
getNameByCode method can be added to the enum to get name of a String value-
enum CODE {
SUCCESS("SCS"), DELETE("DEL");
private String status;
/**
* #return the status
*/
public String getStatus() {
return status;
}
/**
* #param status
* the status to set
*/
public void setStatus(String status) {
this.status = status;
}
private CODE(String status) {
this.status = status;
}
public static String getNameByCode(String code) {
for (int i = 0; i < CODE.values().length; i++) {
if (code.equals(CODE.values()[i].status))
return CODE.values()[i].name();
}
return null;
}
If you want something more efficient in runtime condition, you can have a map that contains every possible choice of the enum by their value. But it'll be juste slower at initialisation of the JVM.
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
/**
* Example of enum with a getter that need a value in parameter, and that return the Choice/Instance
* of the enum which has the same value.
* The value of each choice can be random.
*/
public enum MyEnum {
/** a random choice */
Choice1(4),
/** a nother one */
Choice2(2),
/** another one again */
Choice3(9);
/** a map that contains every choices of the enum ordered by their value. */
private static final Map<Integer, MyEnum> MY_MAP = new HashMap<Integer, MyEnum>();
static {
// populating the map
for (MyEnum myEnum : values()) {
MY_MAP.put(myEnum.getValue(), myEnum);
}
}
/** the value of the choice */
private int value;
/**
* constructor
* #param value the value
*/
private MyEnum(int value) {
this.value = value;
}
/**
* getter of the value
* #return int
*/
public int getValue() {
return value;
}
/**
* Return one of the choice of the enum by its value.
* May return null if there is no choice for this value.
* #param value value
* #return MyEnum
*/
public static MyEnum getByValue(int value) {
return MY_MAP.get(value);
}
/**
* {#inheritDoc}
* #see java.lang.Enum#toString()
*/
public String toString() {
return name() + "=" + value;
}
/**
* Exemple of how to use this class.
* #param args args
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
MyEnum enum1 = MyEnum.Choice1;
System.out.println("enum1==>" + String.valueOf(enum1));
MyEnum enum2GotByValue = MyEnum.getByValue(enum1.getValue());
System.out.println("enum2GotByValue==>" + String.valueOf(enum2GotByValue));
MyEnum enum3Unknown = MyEnum.getByValue(4);
System.out.println("enum3Unknown==>" + String.valueOf(enum3Unknown));
}
}
This is my take on it:
public enum LoginState {
LOGGED_IN(1), LOGGED_OUT(0), IN_TRANSACTION(-1);
private int code;
LoginState(int code) {
this.code = code;
}
public int getCode() {
return code;
}
public static LoginState getLoginStateFromCode(int code){
for(LoginState e : LoginState.values()){
if(code == e.code) return e;
}
return LoginState.LOGGED_OUT; //or null
}
};
And I have used it with System Preferences in Android like so:
LoginState getLoginState(int i) {
return LoginState.getLoginStateFromCode(
prefs().getInt(SPK_IS_LOGIN, LoginState.LOGGED_OUT.getCode())
);
}
public static void setLoginState(LoginState newLoginState) {
editor().putInt(SPK_IS_LOGIN, newLoginState.getCode());
editor().commit();
}
where pref and editor are SharedPreferences and a SharedPreferences.Editor
What is the best way to use the values stored in an Enum as String literals?
For example:
public enum Modes {
some-really-long-string,
mode1,
mode2,
mode3
}
Then later I could use Mode.mode1 to return its string representation as mode1. Without having to keep calling Mode.mode1.toString().
You can't. I think you have FOUR options here. All four offer a solution but with a slightly different approach...
Option One: use the built-in name() on an enum. This is perfectly fine if you don't need any special naming format.
String name = Modes.mode1.name(); // Returns the name of this enum constant, exactly as declared in its enum declaration.
Option Two: add overriding properties to your enums if you want more control
public enum Modes {
mode1 ("Fancy Mode 1"),
mode2 ("Fancy Mode 2"),
mode3 ("Fancy Mode 3");
private final String name;
private Modes(String s) {
name = s;
}
public boolean equalsName(String otherName) {
// (otherName == null) check is not needed because name.equals(null) returns false
return name.equals(otherName);
}
public String toString() {
return this.name;
}
}
Option Three: use static finals instead of enums:
public final class Modes {
public static final String MODE_1 = "Fancy Mode 1";
public static final String MODE_2 = "Fancy Mode 2";
public static final String MODE_3 = "Fancy Mode 3";
private Modes() { }
}
Option Four: interfaces have every field public, static and final:
public interface Modes {
String MODE_1 = "Fancy Mode 1";
String MODE_2 = "Fancy Mode 2";
String MODE_3 = "Fancy Mode 3";
}
Every enum has both a name() and a valueOf(String) method. The former returns the string name of the enum, and the latter gives the enum value whose name is the string. Is this like what you're looking for?
String name = Modes.mode1.name();
Modes mode = Modes.valueOf(name);
There's also a static valueOf(Class, String) on Enum itself, so you could also use:
Modes mode = Enum.valueOf(Modes.class, name);
You could override the toString() method for each enum value.
Example:
public enum Country {
DE {
#Override
public String toString() {
return "Germany";
}
},
IT {
#Override
public String toString() {
return "Italy";
}
},
US {
#Override
public String toString() {
return "United States";
}
}
}
Usage:
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(Country.DE); // Germany
System.out.println(Country.IT); // Italy
System.out.println(Country.US); // United States
}
As Benny Neugebauer mentions, you could overwrite the toString(). However instead overwriting the toString for each enum field I like more something like this:
public enum Country{
SPAIN("España"),
ITALY("Italia"),
PORTUGAL("Portugal");
private String value;
Country(final String value) {
this.value = value;
}
public String getValue() {
return value;
}
#Override
public String toString() {
return this.getValue();
}
}
You could also add a static method to retrieve all the fields, to print them all, etc.
Simply call getValue to obtain the string associated to each Enum item
mode1.name() or String.valueOf(mode1). It doesn't get better than that, I'm afraid
public enum Modes {
MODE1("Mode1"),
MODE2("Mode2"),
MODE3("Mode3");
private String value;
public String getValue() {
return value;
}
private Modes(String value) {
this.value = value;
}
}
you can make a call like below wherever you want to get the value as a string from the enum.
Modes.MODE1.getvalue();
This will return "Mode1" as a String.
For my enums I don't really like to think of them being allocated with 1 String each. This is how I implement a toString() method on enums.
enum Animal
{
DOG, CAT, BIRD;
public String toString(){
switch (this) {
case DOG: return "Dog";
case CAT: return "Cat";
case BIRD: return "Bird";
}
return null;
}
}
You can use Mode.mode1.name() however you often don't need to do this.
Mode mode =
System.out.println("The mode is "+mode);
As far as I know, the only way to get the name would be
Mode.mode1.name();
If you really need it this way, however, you could do:
public enum Modes {
mode1 ("Mode1"),
mode2 ("Mode2"),
mode3 ("Mode3");
private String name;
private Modes(String s) {
name = s;
}
}
my solution for your problem!
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
public enum MapEnumSample {
Mustang("One of the fastest cars in the world!"),
Mercedes("One of the most beautiful cars in the world!"),
Ferrari("Ferrari or Mercedes, which one is the best?");
private final String description;
private static Map<String, String> enumMap;
private MapEnumSample(String description) {
this.description = description;
}
public String getEnumValue() {
return description;
}
public static String getEnumKey(String name) {
if (enumMap == null) {
initializeMap();
}
return enumMap.get(name);
}
private static Map<String, String> initializeMap() {
enumMap = new HashMap<String, String>();
for (MapEnumSample access : MapEnumSample.values()) {
enumMap.put(access.getEnumValue(), access.toString());
}
return enumMap;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
// getting value from Description
System.out.println(MapEnumSample.getEnumKey("One of the fastest cars in the world!"));
// getting value from Constant
System.out.println(MapEnumSample.Mustang.getEnumValue());
System.out.println(MapEnumSample.getEnumKey("One of the most beautiful cars in the world!"));
System.out.println(MapEnumSample.Mercedes.getEnumValue());
// doesnt exist in Enum
System.out.println("Mustang or Mercedes, which one is the best?");
System.out.println(MapEnumSample.getEnumKey("Mustang or Mercedes, which one is the best?") == null ? "I don't know!" : "I believe that "
+ MapEnumSample.getEnumKey("Ferrari or Mustang, which one is the best?") + " is the best!.");
// exists in Enum
System.out.println("Ferrari or Mercedes, wich one is the best?");
System.out.println(MapEnumSample.getEnumKey("Ferrari or Mercedes, which one is the best?") == null ? "I don't know!" : "I believe that "
+ MapEnumSample.getEnumKey("Ferrari or Mercedes, which one is the best?") + " is the best!");
}
}
You can simply use:
""+ Modes.mode1
public enum Environment
{
PROD("https://prod.domain.com:1088/"),
SIT("https://sit.domain.com:2019/"),
CIT("https://cit.domain.com:8080/"),
DEV("https://dev.domain.com:21323/");
private String url;
Environment(String envUrl) {
this.url = envUrl;
}
public String getUrl() {
return url;
}
}
String prodUrl = Environment.PROD.getUrl();
It will print:
https://prod.domain.com:1088/
This design for enum string constants works in most of the cases.
Enum is just a little bit special class. Enums can store additional fields, implement methods etc. For example
public enum Modes {
mode1('a'),
mode2('b'),
mode3('c'),
;
char c;
private Modes(char c) {
this.c = c;
}
public char character() {
return c;
}
}
Now you can say:
System.out.println(Modes.mode1.character())
and see output:
a
package com.common.test;
public enum Days {
monday(1,"Monday"),tuesday(2,"Tuesday"),wednesday(3,"Wednesday"),
thrusday(4,"Thrusday"),friday(5,"Friday"),saturday(6,"Saturday"),sunday(7,"Sunday");
private int id;
private String desc;
Days(int id,String desc){
this.id=id;
this.desc=desc;
}
public static String getDay(int id){
for (Days day : Days.values()) {
if (day.getId() == id) {
return day.getDesc();
}
}
return null;
}
public int getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(int id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getDesc() {
return desc;
}
public void setDesc(String desc) {
this.desc = desc;
}
};
This method should work with any enum:
public enum MyEnum {
VALUE1,
VALUE2,
VALUE3;
public int getValue() {
return this.ordinal();
}
public static DataType forValue(int value) {
return values()[value];
}
public String toString() {
return forValue(getValue()).name();
}
}
i found this one is more easy for preventing type error:
public enum Modes {
some-really-long-string,
mode1,
mode2,
mode3;
String str;
Modes(){
this.str = super.name();
}
#Override
#NonNull
public String toString() {
return str;
}
however - this may work when you need to use a String on a log/println or whenever java compiles the toString() method automatically, but on a code line like this ->
// sample method that require (string,value)
intent.putExtra(Modes.mode1 ,shareElement.getMode()); // java error
// first argument enum does not return value
instead as mentioned above you will still have to extend the enum and use .name() in those cases like this:
intent.putExtra(Modes.mode1.name() ,shareElement.getMode());
after many tries I have come with this solution
public static enum Operation {
Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division,;
public String getUserFriendlyString() {
if (this==Addition) {
return " + ";
} else if (this==Subtraction) {
return " - ";
} else if (this==Multiplication) {
return " * ";
} else if (this==Division) {
return " / ";
}
return "undefined";
}
}
You can try this:
public enum Modes {
some-really-long-string,
mode1,
mode2,
mode3;
public String toString(){
switch(this) {
case some-really-long-string:
return "some-really-long-string";
case mode2:
return "mode2";
default: return "undefined";
}
}
}
use mode1.name() or String.valueOf(Modes.mode1)
What is the correct way to cast an Int to an enum in Java given the following enum?
public enum MyEnum
{
EnumValue1,
EnumValue2
}
MyEnum enumValue = (MyEnum) x; //Doesn't work???
Try MyEnum.values()[x] where x must be 0 or 1, i.e. a valid ordinal for that enum.
Note that in Java enums actually are classes (and enum values thus are objects) and thus you can't cast an int or even Integer to an enum.
MyEnum.values()[x] is an expensive operation. If the performance is a concern, you may want to do something like this:
public enum MyEnum {
EnumValue1,
EnumValue2;
public static MyEnum fromInteger(int x) {
switch(x) {
case 0:
return EnumValue1;
case 1:
return EnumValue2;
}
return null;
}
}
If you want to give your integer values, you can use a structure like below
public enum A
{
B(0),
C(10),
None(11);
int id;
private A(int i){id = i;}
public int GetID(){return id;}
public boolean IsEmpty(){return this.equals(A.None);}
public boolean Compare(int i){return id == i;}
public static A GetValue(int _id)
{
A[] As = A.values();
for(int i = 0; i < As.length; i++)
{
if(As[i].Compare(_id))
return As[i];
}
return A.None;
}
}
You can try like this.
Create Class with element id.
public Enum MyEnum {
THIS(5),
THAT(16),
THE_OTHER(35);
private int id; // Could be other data type besides int
private MyEnum(int id) {
this.id = id;
}
public static MyEnum fromId(int id) {
for (MyEnum type : values()) {
if (type.getId() == id) {
return type;
}
}
return null;
}
}
Now Fetch this Enum using id as int.
MyEnum myEnum = MyEnum.fromId(5);
I cache the values and create a simple static access method:
public static enum EnumAttributeType {
ENUM_1,
ENUM_2;
private static EnumAttributeType[] values = null;
public static EnumAttributeType fromInt(int i) {
if(EnumAttributeType.values == null) {
EnumAttributeType.values = EnumAttributeType.values();
}
return EnumAttributeType.values[i];
}
}
Java enums don't have the same kind of enum-to-int mapping that they do in C++.
That said, all enums have a values method that returns an array of possible enum values, so
MyEnum enumValue = MyEnum.values()[x];
should work. It's a little nasty and it might be better to not try and convert from ints to Enums (or vice versa) if possible.
This not something that is usually done, so I would reconsider. But having said that, the fundamental operations are: int --> enum using EnumType.values()[intNum], and enum --> int using enumInst.ordinal().
However, since any implementation of values() has no choice but to give you a copy of the array (java arrays are never read-only), you would be better served using an EnumMap to cache the enum --> int mapping.
Use MyEnum enumValue = MyEnum.values()[x];
Here's the solution I plan to go with. Not only does this work with non-sequential integers, but it should work with any other data type you may want to use as the underlying id for your enum values.
public Enum MyEnum {
THIS(5),
THAT(16),
THE_OTHER(35);
private int id; // Could be other data type besides int
private MyEnum(int id) {
this.id = id;
}
public int getId() {
return this.id;
}
public static Map<Integer, MyEnum> buildMap() {
Map<Integer, MyEnum> map = new HashMap<Integer, MyEnum>();
MyEnum[] values = MyEnum.values();
for (MyEnum value : values) {
map.put(value.getId(), value);
}
return map;
}
}
I only need to convert id's to enums at specific times (when loading data from a file), so there's no reason for me to keep the Map in memory at all times. If you do need the map to be accessible at all times, you can always cache it as a static member of your Enum class.
In case it helps others, the option I prefer, which is not listed here, uses Guava's Maps functionality:
public enum MyEnum {
OPTION_1(-66),
OPTION_2(32);
private int value;
private MyEnum(final int value) {
this.value = value;
}
public int getValue() {
return this.value;
}
private static ImmutableMap<Integer, MyEnum> reverseLookup =
Maps.uniqueIndex(Arrays.asList(MyEnum.values())), MyEnum::getValue);
public static MyEnum fromInt(final int id) {
return reverseLookup.getOrDefault(id, OPTION_1);
}
}
With the default you can use null, you can throw IllegalArgumentException or your fromInt could return an Optional, whatever behavior you prefer.
Based on #ChadBefus 's answer and #shmosel comment, I'd recommend using this. (Efficient lookup, and works on pure java >= 8)
import java.util.stream.Collectors;
import java.util.function.Function;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.Arrays;
public enum MyEnum {
OPTION_1(-66),
OPTION_2(32);
private int value;
private MyEnum(final int value) {
this.value = value;
}
public int getValue() {
return this.value;
}
private static Map<Integer, MyEnum> reverseLookup =
Arrays.stream(MyEnum.values()).collect(Collectors.toMap(MyEnum::getValue, Function.identity()));
public static MyEnum fromInt(final int id) {
return reverseLookup.getOrDefault(id, OPTION_1);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(fromInt(-66).toString());
}
}
You can iterate over values() of enum and compare integer value of enum with given id like below:
public enum TestEnum {
None(0),
Value1(1),
Value2(2),
Value3(3),
Value4(4),
Value5(5);
private final int value;
private TestEnum(int value) {
this.value = value;
}
public int getValue() {
return value;
}
public static TestEnum getEnum(int value){
for (TestEnum e:TestEnum.values()) {
if(e.getValue() == value)
return e;
}
return TestEnum.None;//For values out of enum scope
}
}
And use just like this:
TestEnum x = TestEnum.getEnum(4);//Will return TestEnum.Value4
I hope this helps ;)
Wrote this implementation. It allows for missing values, negative values and keeps code consistent. The map is cached as well. Uses an interface and needs Java 8.
Enum
public enum Command implements OrdinalEnum{
PRINT_FOO(-7),
PRINT_BAR(6),
PRINT_BAZ(4);
private int val;
private Command(int val){
this.val = val;
}
public int getVal(){
return val;
}
private static Map<Integer, Command> map = OrdinalEnum.getValues(Command.class);
public static Command from(int i){
return map.get(i);
}
}
Interface
public interface OrdinalEnum{
public int getVal();
#SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
static <E extends Enum<E>> Map<Integer, E> getValues(Class<E> clzz){
Map<Integer, E> m = new HashMap<>();
for(Enum<E> e : EnumSet.allOf(clzz))
m.put(((OrdinalEnum)e).getVal(), (E)e);
return m;
}
}
In Kotlin:
enum class Status(val id: Int) {
NEW(0), VISIT(1), IN_WORK(2), FINISHED(3), CANCELLED(4), DUMMY(5);
companion object {
private val statuses = Status.values().associateBy(Status::id)
fun getStatus(id: Int): Status? = statuses[id]
}
}
Usage:
val status = Status.getStatus(1)!!
A good option is to avoid conversion from int to enum: for example, if you need the maximal value, you may compare x.ordinal() to y.ordinal() and return x or y correspondingly. (You may need to re-order you values to make such comparison meaningful.)
If that is not possible, I would store MyEnum.values() into a static array.
This is the same answer as the doctors but it shows how to eliminate the problem with mutable arrays. If you use this kind of approach because of branch prediction first if will have very little to zero effect and whole code only calls mutable array values() function only once. As both variables are static they will not consume n * memory for every usage of this enumeration too.
private static boolean arrayCreated = false;
private static RFMsgType[] ArrayOfValues;
public static RFMsgType GetMsgTypeFromValue(int MessageID) {
if (arrayCreated == false) {
ArrayOfValues = RFMsgType.values();
}
for (int i = 0; i < ArrayOfValues.length; i++) {
if (ArrayOfValues[i].MessageIDValue == MessageID) {
return ArrayOfValues[i];
}
}
return RFMsgType.UNKNOWN;
}
enum MyEnum {
A(0),
B(1);
private final int value;
private MyEnum(int val) {this.value = value;}
private static final MyEnum[] values = MyEnum.values();//cache for optimization
public static final getMyEnum(int value) {
try {
return values[value];//OOB might get triggered
} catch (ArrayOutOfBoundsException e) {
} finally {
return myDefaultEnumValue;
}
}
}
