- java.lang.Enum<PropertyDispatcher>
- - net.bytebuddy.utility.PropertyDispatcher

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<PropertyDispatcher>
```
public enum PropertyDispatcher
extends Enum<PropertyDispatcher>
```
A dispatcher for invoking Object.toString() and Object.hashCode() methods that are sensitive to array values which need redirection to different specialized methods defined by Arrays.

- Method Detail
  - values
```
public static PropertyDispatcher[] 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 (PropertyDispatcher c : PropertyDispatcher.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static PropertyDispatcher 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
  - of
```
public static PropertyDispatcher of(Class<?> type)
```
    Finds a property dispatcher for a given type.
    
    Parameters:
    
    type - The type for which a property dispatcher should be found.
    
    Returns:
    
    A suitable property dispatcher.
  - toString
```
public abstract String toString(Object value)
```
    Computes a string representation for the given type.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - The value onto which a specific toString method should be invoked.
    
    Returns:
    
    The created string.
  - hashCode
```
public abstract int hashCode(Object value)
```
    Computes a hash code for the given type.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - The value onto which a specific hashCode method should be invoked.
    
    Returns:
    
    The created hash code.
  - equals
```
public boolean equals(Object first,
                      Object second)
```
    Compares if two values are equal.
    
    Parameters:
    
    first - The first value which must be of the type of this property dispatcher and not null.
    
    second - Another value which might or might not be of the type of this property dispatcher.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if both values are equal.
  - doEquals
```
protected abstract boolean doEquals(Object first,
                                    Object second)
```
    Compares two values that are both non-null and of the same type as the array.
    
    Parameters:
    
    first - The first value of this property dispatcher's type.
    
    second - The second value of this property dispatcher's type.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if both values are equal.
  - conditionalClone
```
public abstract <T> T conditionalClone(T value)
```
    Creates a shallow copy of an array but returns non-array types as such.
    
    Type Parameters:
    
    T - The type of the value.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - The value to attempt to clone.
    
    Returns:
    
    A shallow copy of an array or the input value if it does not represent an array.
  - toString
```
public String toString()
```
    Overrides:
    
    toString in class Enum<PropertyDispatcher>
