public abstract class EnumeratedType
extends StringValue

A base class for defining enumerated types. Since this class extends StringValue, every enumerated type subclass is a StringValue that can be manipulated, converted and displayed in useful ways. In addition to constructing a type with the given name, lists are kept of all enumeration values by subclass. The list of available values in the enumeration represented by a given subclass can be retrieved by calling getValues(Class).
