Enum HorizontalAlignment

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<HorizontalAlignment>

net.sf.mmm.util.lang.api.HorizontalAlignment

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<HorizontalAlignment>, AttributeReadValue<String>, Datatype, SimpleDatatype<String>

public enum HorizontalAlignment
extends Enum<HorizontalAlignment>
implements SimpleDatatype<String>

This enum represents a horizontal alignment (e.g. for Justification).
The following table gives an example to illustrate the expected behavior of according to an HorizontalAlignment.

Alignment	Text
LEFT	Hello
CENTER	Hello
RIGHT	Hello

Method Detail

values

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static HorizontalAlignment 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

getValue

public String getValue()

Description copied from interface: SimpleDatatype

This method returns the raw value of this datatype. This will typically be a standard datatype (like String , Character, Boolean, any type of Number, any type of java.time.LocalDate, etc.).

Specified by:

getValue in interface AttributeReadValue<String>

Specified by:

getValue in interface SimpleDatatype<String>

Returns:

the value of this datatype.

getAlignment

public Alignment getAlignment()

This method gets the corresponding Alignment.

Returns:

the corresponding Alignment.

toString

public String toString()

Description copied from interface: Datatype

Returns the official String representation of this Datatype. While the general contract of Object.toString() is very weak and mainly used for debugging, the contract here is very strong. The returned String has to be suitable for end-users and official output to any kind of sink.
ATTENTION:
This method is not supposed to do internationalization (I18N). See NlsMessage for this purpose and implement NlsObject if you want to support I18N/L10N.

Specified by:

toString in interface Datatype

Overrides:

toString in class Enum<HorizontalAlignment>

Returns:

the official String representation to display the value of this Datatype.

fromValue

public static HorizontalAlignment fromValue(String value)

This method gets the HorizontalAlignment with the given value.

Parameters:

value - is the value of the requested HorizontalAlignment.

Returns:

the requested HorizontalAlignment.
