All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<LexStatus>

public enum LexStatus
extends java.lang.Enum<LexStatus>

Enum values for querying a lexicon and determining if a string is a word, is a prefix of a word, or is not a word (and not a prefix of a word).

If PREFIX is returned, then the string is not a word, but is the prefix of at least one word in the lexicon.

If WORD is returned, then the string is a word in the dictionary (it could be a prefix too, e.g., MOM is a word, but is a prefix of MOMENT).

If NOT_WORD is returned, the string is not a word, and it's not the prefix of any word in the lexicon.

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static LexStatus 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
