        public static final InvocationStrategy ROUND_ROBIN
        Invoke the next instance. After invocation of the last instance, start with the first one again. In case an instance cannot be invoked any more, skip this instance and continue with the next one. Continue till all instances cannot be invoked any more.

      • FIRST_TO_LAST

        public static final InvocationStrategy FIRST_TO_LAST
        Start with the first instance and invoke it till it cannot be invoked any more. Use the next instance till it also cannot be invoked any more. Continue with this strategy, invocation finishes with the last instance till cannot be invoked any more.

      • LAST_TO_FIRST

        public static final InvocationStrategy LAST_TO_FIRST

      • values

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

      • valueOf

        public static InvocationStrategy 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
