Enum CacheMode

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<CacheMode>

    public enum CacheMode
    extends java.lang.Enum<CacheMode>
    Determines how the JUnit test support caches classes.
    The test support can cache imported classes according to their location between several runs of different test classes, i.e. if ATest analyses file:///some/path and BTest analyses the same classes, the classes imported for ATest will be reused for BTest. If this is not desired, the CacheMode.PER_CLASS can be used to completely deactivate caching between different test classes.

        public static final CacheMode PER_CLASS

      • FOREVER

        @PublicAPI(usage=ACCESS)
        public static final CacheMode FOREVER
        Signals that imported Java classes should be cached by location (i.e. the combination of URLs used to import these classes). The cache uses SoftReferences, i.e. the heap will be freed, once it is needed, but this might cause a noticeable delay, once the garbage collector starts removing all those references at the last possible moment.

      • values

        public static CacheMode[] 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 (CacheMode c : CacheMode.values())
            System.out.println(c);
        
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
      • valueOf

        public static CacheMode valueOf​(java.lang.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:
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
