Signal (Simple Binary Encoding (SBE))

java.lang.Object
- java.lang.Enum<Signal>
- - uk.co.real_logic.sbe.ir.Signal

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<Signal>
```
public enum Signal
extends Enum<Signal>
```
Signal the Token role within a stream of tokens. These signals begin/end various entities such as fields, composites, messages, repeating groups, enumerations, bitsets, etc.

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