Enum Properties / Values / Fields

Jul 11, 2014

So I have an Enum file with 119 constants and each constant of that type has 20 fields that come with it. All the fields are the same type and named the same (e.g. there are 119 of Object obj, one for each constant), and I want to run the same methods over them. Since the Objects of the same type are named the same for each constant, I just have them named explicitly in get-er methods.

This worked fine when I just put all 20 fields through the constructor and set them as fields under all the constants. But I realized that if I wanted to make an instance of this Enum class, I'd have to enter in all 20 fields when they are all a set of Objects with unique values. So I then put them as fields under their own respective constant to make it easier to create instances of this enum. But now my methods don't work.

A) I don't really understand why they don't work anymore?
B) Is there a way to fix it without putting all the methods under each constant?

Example:

public enum MyEnum {
AAA {
private MyObject obj = new MyObject (3.0);
},
BBB {
private MyObject obj = new MyObject (1.5);
},
CCC {
private MyObject obj = new MyObject (6.5);
},
DDD {
private MyObject obj = new MyObject (3.5);
};

public double getObjVal() {
return obj.value(); // it can't find this obj should I move it up to where the constants are declared?
}
}

Method Values For Enum Types

Nov 21, 2014

What class does method Planet.values() in the code below belong to? I thought it belongs to java.lang.Enum but when I could not see it in Java API 7.

package enumeration;
public class EnumTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Planet myPlanet = Planet.EARTH;
// Check arguments supplied
if (args.length != 1) {
System.err.println("Usage: java EnumTest <earth_weight>");
System.exit(-1);

How To Find Maximum Of Two Enum Values

Oct 6, 2014

I have a set of enum values (let's call then ONE, TWO, THREE.....). I want to find the larger of two of them. But max(ONE,THREE) gives a compile error as MAX isn't defined for type-safe enums. Fair enough.
 
I also agree that one shouldn't be able to use arithmetic functions on enums.
 
But as Enum implements Comparable, one can write a function which implements max and min, rather inefficiently I assume.
 
Is there a better way of getting the max/min of an enum? And if not, can the Java team be persuaded to implement it?

Strings With Digits Not Permitted Enum Values?

May 28, 2013

If you have an enumeration type with instances whose publicly accepted names are numbers, e.g. a Chevy 396 and I'm sorting this car according to makes and models that I've already laid out within enum types for each. Here the make instance is "Chevy" and the model instance is just "396".

I know I could make this "396" into "Ch396" and this would work programmatically. But this might confuse some people who just expect to see "396".

In short, why are enum instances not allowed to be of String type rather than just standard Java identifiers ?

Sending Values For GUI Fields

Jul 9, 2014

I have a simple class, called InputManager, which has methods that communicate with another class DatabaseManager which has access to Database which is actually object that contains information about actual database.

My JFrame has Navigation class (extends JPanel). There I put all needed JButtons, JLists and so on.. This class has instance of InputManager and when user interacts with GUI components inside of it, Navigation calls InputManager methods, it then analyses the call and calls needed methods on DeviceManager, which then sends queries to Database and etc.

The problem is, that at the beginning (when user runs a program), I want to get information (which is actually values for my GUI components ) from Database. It could, for example, create another DatabaseManager and connect to the Database to get information, but it is okay to have two objects?

I was also thinking about sending same DatabaseManager object through InputManager to Navigation, but it seems strange for me to have two objects, which can interact with each other in both directions(Class A has instance of Class B, and Class B has instance of Class A). Is there anything bad this can do?

Also what I noticed that it seems odd that GUI class would have to get information from database. (Logic in GUI class).

JSF :: Viewstate Stored In Session And Values Of Input Fields

Sep 11, 2014

Many times I have read that JSF stores de view state in session and one of the things that are stored are the values of the form fields, right? But these input field values are not stored in session, I mean, they depend of the scope of the managed bean attached to the view. If I have a view and its attached to a view scoped bean with properties for the form fields, the values will dissapear if I go to other view because the bean is view scoped so I cant say the values of the form are stored in session, right?

Modify Values In Fields In Serializable Object Using Objects Set Methods Java

Dec 10, 2014

This program is basically complete. It compiles and runs. It is a college course assignment that I pretty much completed but for the last part in which I'm suppose to change the values of all fields and display the modified values using a toString method. Modifying the values of the fields is where I am stuck. I don't think I need to create a new text data file to do this. The instructor only asked that all the values of fields be changed and this was the last part of the assignment so I don't think it involves creating additional ObjectOutputStream and ObjectInputStream objects. I'm getting a NullPointerException error on line 161.Here is the code. I'm also including the input data file.

//create program so that objects of class can be serialized, implements interface Serialiable
//create constructor with 4 parameters with accompanying get and set methods, Override toString method
//create text file with 5 records, create Scanner object,ObjectOutputStream, and ObjectInputStream
//create new ItemRecord object, change values of all fields in ItemRecord object using object's set methods
//modify ItemRecord object using toString method

[hightlight =Java]import java.io.Serializable;
public class ItemRecord implements Serializable

[Code] .....

This is the error message:

{
"a" : null,
"b" : "hello"

How To Get Enum Name By Value

Jan 12, 2015

I want to have a priceObject which is constructed by a price the enumtype and the name.

public class Testing {
public static void main(String[] args) {
PreisObject p1 = new PreisObject(1,Price.liquid,"TEST1");
System.out.println(p1);
PreisObject p2 = new PreisObject(2,Price('f'),"Test2");

[Code] .....

As you can see with PreisObject2 I want to check the enum by the value and not by the name as in PreisObject1.

Or do I have to use a if-else or switch statement to do something like this?

Iterate Enum Type Without Instance

Sep 16, 2014

Is there anyway to iterate an enum type without an instance. As some context, consider the following code:

Java Code: public interface GenericChecker
{
public bool isValid(String str);
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java'); Java Code: public class EnumChecker<T extends Enum<T> > extends GenericChecker
{
private Class<T> enumType; //No instance

[code]....

toString method of the enum types has been overridden so that it returns the name assigned to the enum rather than the enum name itself. For example an enum might be SOME_ENUM("Assigned name"), therefore toString returns "Assigned name" rather than "SOME_ENUM". The idea is that a field from a table can be handed to the isValid(String) function on the GenericChecker base, and the derived class will then check to see if the field matches valid data as far as it is concerned.Thus, I can create a whole bunch of checkers easliy:

Java Code: GenericChecker checker1 = EnumChecker<EnumType1>();
GenericChecker checker2 = EnumChecker<EnumType2>();
GenericChecker checker3 = EnumChecker<EnumType3>();
GenericChecker checker4 = SomeOtherChecker(); mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

The problem is, if I use the EnumChecker then the expression "enumType.getEnumConstants()" in the isValid function blows up because enumType is null.

Dynamic Enum - How To Make DIME(10) False

Apr 20, 2015

I wrote a simple enum and a test class. The enum represents us coins and my test class uses the enum to calculate the change with the least number of coins. For example, I pass in 95 cents, I get back 3 quarters, 2 dimes. It all works just fine, easy to implement and I see why I should use an enum. Then I thought, what if the person is out of dimes. How could I tell the enum to skip dimes in it's switch statements? How would I make DIME(10) false?

Calendar (Days Enum) - Determine If Day Is Weekday Or Weekend

Oct 17, 2014

The instructions state: Create the following values for the enum (and make sure that they are spelled correctly, case matters):

a. SUN
b. MON
c. TUE
d. WED
e. THU
f. FRI
g. SAT

Create a private constructor for the Day enum that takes a boolean value. This boolean will determine if the day is a weekday (if it is true) or weekend (if it is false). Document it with a JavaDoc. This value will need to be stored as part of the object. Update the enum values so that they correctly call the constructor. Saturday and Sunday are the only days considered part of the weekend.

Implement the following methods:
a. boolean isWeekday()
i. Returns true if the day is a weekday.

b. Boolean isWeekend()
i. Returns true if the day is a weekend. (How could you determine that?)

c. String toString()
i. Returns the full name of the day for the enum value (i.e. Monday or Tuesday). Use either a set of nested ifs or a switch statement.

Hint: You will want to compare the this reference against the possible values in the enum.

How To Create New XML DOC With Properties From Existing One

Mar 13, 2014

I have an XML doc that looks like this:

Java Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<model>
<id>_1</id>
<nodes>
<id>_2</id>
<stencil>TASK</stencil>
</nodes>
<nodes>
<id>_3</id>
<stencil>TASK</stencil>
</nodes>
</model> mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

I have to create another xml doc with the properties of nodes from the first doc. For the new doc I have to create a parent node called "definitions". Instead of the "model" node in the first doc I have to create a "process" node in the new doc that has an attribute "id" which value is the same as the content of the "id" child node of model. For each "nodes" node in the first doc if their "stencil" child node content equals "TASK" I create a "task" node in the new xml doc.

Java Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<definitions>
<process id="_1">
<task id="_2">
</task>
<task id="_3">
</task>
</process>
</definitions> mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

[code]....

I just wanted to know if this is the correct way to define the respective classes.any way to create and fill the nodes for the new doc using this classes? I am used with DOM parser and I know how to create nodes and fill attribute values, but I have always done this job in a single class, not using different classes for the elements.

Accessing JList Properties

I currently have some code using a JFrame. I am trying to access the items in a JList to save them in a TXT file. For this, I am using a "for" loop. The problem is, is that when I try to access the list items, I can't access them. The way I am trying to access the items is by using:

Java Code: listRight.getModel().getSize(); mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

BUT, I can't seem to get this to work. I tried to place this for loop everywhere and I can't access it. I tried accessing it under "public class Window", "private JFrame frmPcPartBuilder", "public static void main(String[] args)", "public void Initialize()" and I can't seem to access the JList. I basically have a save button that saves the list to a text file and the code I am trying to write is called by this button.
