枚举类型Enum

package test;

import java.util.*;

public class EnumTest {

	/**
	 * @param args
	 */
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
		System.out.println("Enter a size:(SMALL,MEDIUM,LARGE,EXTRA_LARGE):");
		String input = in.next().toUpperCase();
		Size size = Enum.valueOf(Size.class,input);
		System.out.println("size=" + size);
		System.out.println("abbreviation="+size.getAbbreviation());
		if(size == Size.EXTRA_LARGE){
			System.out.println("你选择的是最大码的。");
		}
	}

}

enum Size{
	SMALL("S"),MEDIUM("M"),LARGE("L"),EXTRA_LARGE("XL");
	
	private Size(String abbreviation){this.abbreviation = abbreviation;}
	
	public String getAbbreviation() {
		return abbreviation;
	}

	private String abbreviation;
	
}

结果为:

Enter a size:(SMALL,MEDIUM,LARGE,EXTRA_LARGE):

SMALL

size=SMALL

abbreviation=S

经验小结：

所有的枚举类型都是Enum类的子类。继承了很多Enum的方法。常用的toString返回枚举的常量名。如：

Size.SMALL.toString()返回字符串"SMALL"

toString的逆方法是静态方法valueOf

Size s = (Size)Enum.valueOf(Size.class,"SMALL");
