Enum Constant Detail

LOGICAL

public static final TimeType LOGICAL

Used to guarantee ordering of data sequentially as inserted

MILLIS

public static final TimeType MILLIS

This is the default. Tries to ensure that inserted data is stored with the timestamp closest to the machine's time to the nearest millisecond, without going backwards to guarantee insertion sequence. Note that using this time type can cause time to "skip" forward if a machine has a time that is too far off. NTP is recommended when using this type.

Method Detail

values

public static TimeType[] 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 (TimeType c : TimeType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static TimeType 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
