Method Detail

values

public static Authorisation.Decision[] 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 (Authorisation.Decision c : Authorisation.Decision.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static Authorisation.Decision 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

toBoolean

public boolean toBoolean()

Helper to turn GRANTED into true and anything else into false

This is turning tri-state logic into binary logic. Use deliberately.

Returns:

true if GRANTED otherwise false

toDecision

public static Authorisation.Decision toDecision(boolean answer)

Helper to turn boolean answers into GRANTED or DENIED

Parameters:

answer - the boolean answer

Returns:

GRANTED if true otherwise DENIED
