Enum Constant Detail

BOTTOM_UP

public static final OptimizationPolicy BOTTOM_UP

Set the objective variable to its lowest value

TOP_DOWN

public static final OptimizationPolicy TOP_DOWN

Set the objective variable to its highest value

DICHOTOMIC

public static final OptimizationPolicy DICHOTOMIC

Split the domain of the objective variable

Method Detail

values

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static OptimizationPolicy 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
