Method Detail

values

public static ModuleElement.DirectiveKind[] 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 (ModuleElement.DirectiveKind c : ModuleElement.DirectiveKind.values())
    System.out.println(c);
Returns:
an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
