public static final ForwardIndexField.DataType INT

The INT data type

DATE

public static final ForwardIndexField.DataType DATE

The DATE data type.

FLOAT

public static final ForwardIndexField.DataType FLOAT

The FLOAT data type.

STRING

Method Detail

values

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static ForwardIndexField.DataType 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

getByName

public static ForwardIndexField.DataType getByName(String name)
                                            throws Exception

A case insensitive version of valueOf(String).

Parameters:

name - - the string value to gte the type for

Returns:

DataType of the input string name.

Throws:

IndexException - - in case of failure.

Exception

getTypeClass

public Class getTypeClass()

Getter method for the Class object of this data type

Returns:

the Class object of this data type

getDefaultSize

public int getDefaultSize()

Getter method for the default byte size of this data type

Returns:

the default byte size of this data type
