How to get value from a Java enum

Question

I have a enum which looks like:

public enum Constants{
  YES(\"y\"), NO(\"N\")
  private String value;

  Constants(String value){
    this.value = value;
           


        

Answer 1

You need to override the toString method of your enum:

public enum Constants{
    YES("y"), NO("N")

    // No changes

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return value;
    }
}
