Method Detail

values

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static DBFDataType 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

getCode

public byte getCode()

Gets the code as stored in the dbf file.

Returns:

the code for this type

getMinSize

public int getMinSize()

Gets the minimum size for this type

Returns:

minimum size for this type

getMaxSize

public int getMaxSize()

Gets the maximum size for this type

Returns:

Maximum size for this type

getDefaultSize

public int getDefaultSize()

Gets the default size for this type

Returns:

default size for this type

isWriteSupported

public boolean isWriteSupported()

Gets if JavaDBF can write this type

Returns:

true if JavaDBF can write this type

fromCode

public static DBFDataType fromCode(byte cod)

Gets the DBFDataType from the code used in the file

Parameters:

cod - the code used by dbase

Returns:

The DBFDataType from the code used in the file
