How can I get the name of a Java Enum type given its value?
I have the following code which works for a particular Enum type, can I make it more
Here is the below code, it will return the Enum name from Enum value.
public enum Test {
PLUS("Plus One"), MINUS("MinusTwo"), TIMES("MultiplyByFour"), DIVIDE(
"DivideByZero");
private String operationName;
private Test(final String operationName) {
setOperationName(operationName);
}
public String getOperationName() {
return operationName;
}
public void setOperationName(final String operationName) {
this.operationName = operationName;
}
public static Test getOperationName(final String operationName) {
for (Test oprname : Test.values()) {
if (operationName.equals(oprname.toString())) {
return oprname;
}
}
return null;
}
@Override
public String toString() {
return operationName;
}
}
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Test test = Test.getOperationName("Plus One");
switch (test) {
case PLUS:
System.out.println("Plus.....");
break;
case MINUS:
System.out.println("Minus.....");
break;
default:
System.out.println("Nothing..");
break;
}
}
}
