abstract class Enum extends Serializable

Defines a finite set of values specific to the enumeration. Typically these values enumerate all possible forms something can take and provide a lightweight alternative to case classes.

Each call to a Value method adds a new unique value to the enumeration. To be accessible, these values are usually defined as val members of the evaluation.

All values in an enumeration share a common, unique type defined as the abstract Value type member of the enumeration (Value selected on the stable identifier path of the enumeration instance). Besides, in contrast to Scala's built-in Enumeration, the Value type member can be extended in subclasses, such that it is possible to mix-in traits, for example. In this case, make sure to make the constructor of Value private. Example:

// adding methods to Value
class Day private extends Day.Val {
  def isWorkingDay: Boolean = this != Day.Saturday && this != Day.Sunday
}
object Day extends Enum {
  type Value = Day
  val Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday = new Day
}

// usage:
Day.values filter (_.isWorkingDay) foreach println
// output:
// Monday
// Tuesday
// Wednesday
// Thursday
// Friday

Instance Constructors

  1. new Enum()
  2. new Enum(initial: Int)

    initial

    The initial value from which to count the integers that identifies values at run-time.

Type Members

  1. class Val extends Ordered[Value] with Serializable

    The superclass of the scala.Enum.Value type.

    The superclass of the scala.Enum.Value type. This class can be overridden to change the enumeration's naming and integer identification behaviour, as well as to add additional public functionality.

    Annotations
    @SerialVersionUID()
  2. abstract type Value <: Val

    The type of the enumerated values.

  3. class ValueSet extends AbstractSet[Value] with SortedSet[Value] with SortedSetLike[Value, ValueSet] with Serializable

    A class for sets of values.

    A class for sets of values. Iterating through this set will yield values in increasing order of their ids.
