Package Summary Overview Summary

### class:Diagnostic.Kind [NONE]
public static enum Diagnostic.Kind extends Enum<Diagnostic.Kind> Kinds of diagnostics, for example, error or warning. The kind of a diagnostic can be used to determine how the diagnostic should be presented to the user. For example, errors might be colored red or prefixed with the word "Error", while warnings might be colored yellow or prefixed with the word "Warning". There is no requirement that the Kind should imply any inherent semantic meaning to the message of the diagnostic: for example, a tool might provide an option to report all warnings as errors. ## Nested Class Summary ## Nested classes/interfaces declared in class java.lang.Enum `Enum.EnumDesc<E extends Enum<E>>` ## Enum Constant Summary Enum Constants Enum Constant Description `ERROR` Problem which prevents the tool's normal completion. `MANDATORY_WARNING` Problem similar to a warning, but is mandated by the tool's specification. `NOTE` Informative message from the tool. `OTHER` Diagnostic which does not fit within the other kinds. `WARNING` Problem which does not usually prevent the tool from completing normally. ## Method Summary Modifier and Type Method Description `static Diagnostic.Kind` `valueOf (String name)` Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. `static Diagnostic.Kind[]` `values()` Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared. ### Methods declared in class java.lang.Enum `clone, compareTo, describeConstable, equals, finalize, getDeclaringClass, hashCode, name, ordinal, toString, valueOf` ### Methods declared in class java.lang.Object `getClass, notify, notifyAll, wait, wait, wait` ## Enum Constant Details ### ERROR public static final Diagnostic.Kind ERROR Problem which prevents the tool's normal completion. ### WARNING public static final Diagnostic.Kind WARNING Problem which does not usually prevent the tool from completing normally. ### MANDATORY_WARNING public static final Diagnostic.Kind MANDATORY_WARNING Problem similar to a warning, but is mandated by the tool's specification. For example, the Java Language Specification mandates warnings on certain unchecked operations and the use of deprecated methods. ### NOTE public static final Diagnostic.Kind NOTE Informative message from the tool. ### OTHER public static final Diagnostic.Kind OTHER Diagnostic which does not fit within the other kinds. ## Method Details ### values public static Diagnostic.Kind[] values() Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared. Returns: an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared ### valueOf public static Diagnostic.Kind valueOf (String name) Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this class. (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 class has no constant with the specified name `NullPointerException` - if the argument is null
