      • values

        public static Combinator[] 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 (Combinator c : Combinator.values())
            System.out.println(c);
        
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
      • valueOf

        public static Combinator 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
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
      • toString

        public java.lang.String toString()
        Returns a string representation of this combinator. This version return the canonical representation of the combinator, using ' ' to represent a descendant combinator.
        Overrides:
        toString in class java.lang.Enum<Combinator>
        Returns:
        A string representation of this combinator.
      • valueOf

        public static Combinator valueOf​(char combinatorChar)
        Determines the combinator represented by the given character. Any whitespace character will produce DESCENDANT.
        Parameters:
        combinatorChar - The character representing a combinator.
        Returns:
        The combinator the character represents.
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the given character does not represent a combinator.
