Enum PastEndAction

java.lang.Object
  java.lang.Enum<PastEndAction>
      net.sf.jett.model.PastEndAction

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<PastEndAction>

public enum PastEndAction
extends java.lang.Enum<PastEndAction>

A PastEndAction enumerated value specifies a possible action when dealing with expressions that reference collection items beyond the end of the iteration. This comes up when a MultiForEachTag is operating on collections of different sizes, and one collection has run out of values before another collection.

If such an expression were written in Java code, it would result in an IndexOutOfBoundsException. Each enumerated value specifies a way of handling this condition.

Enum Constant Detail

CLEAR_CELL

public static final PastEndAction CLEAR_CELL

Specifies that any Cell containing an expression that references a collection item beyond the end of the iteration should result in the entire Cell being blanked out.

REMOVE_CELL

public static final PastEndAction REMOVE_CELL

Specifies that any Cell containing an expression that references a collection item beyond the end of the iteration should result in the entire Cell being removed, formatting and all.

Method Detail

values

public static final PastEndAction[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they're declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for(PastEndAction c : PastEndAction.values())
        System.out.println(c);

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static PastEndAction valueOf(java.lang.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:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
