Method Detail
values
public static SourceVersion[] 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 (SourceVersion c : SourceVersion.values()) System.out.println(c);
- Returns:
- an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
valueOf
public static SourceVersion 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
latest
public static SourceVersion latest()
Returns the latest source version that can be modeled.- Returns:
- the latest source version that can be modeled
latestSupported
public static SourceVersion latestSupported()
Returns the latest source version fully supported by the current execution environment.RELEASE_5
or later must be returned.- Returns:
- the latest source version that is fully supported
isIdentifier
public static boolean isIdentifier(CharSequence name)
Returns whether or notname
is a syntactically valid identifier (simple name) or keyword in the latest source version. The method returnstrue
if the name consists of an initial character for whichCharacter.isJavaIdentifierStart(int)
returnstrue
, followed only by characters for whichCharacter.isJavaIdentifierPart(int)
returnstrue
. This pattern matches regular identifiers, keywords, and the literals"true"
,"false"
, and"null"
. The method returnsfalse
for all other strings.- Parameters:
-
name
- the string to check - Returns:
-
true
if this string is a syntactically valid identifier or keyword,false
otherwise.
isName
public static boolean isName(CharSequence name)
Returns whether or notname
is a syntactically valid qualified name in the latest source version. UnlikeisIdentifier
, this method returnsfalse
for keywords and literals.- Parameters:
-
name
- the string to check - Returns:
-
true
if this string is a syntactically valid name,false
otherwise. - See The Java™ Language Specification:
- 6.2 Names and Identifiers
isKeyword
public static boolean isKeyword(CharSequence s)
Returns whether or nots
is a keyword or literal in the latest source version.- Parameters:
-

- the string to check - Returns:
-
