Thread: Enumerated Types

I recently discovered that enum type is a special class, constructors can be formed, instance variables, and the enum data declaration can posses a primitive type.

My question is, in the general sense:

Code:

private enum Foo {
COMMA (","),
SEMICOLON (";");
private String poo 
Foo (String poo) {
this.poo = poo;
private String poo {return poo};
}

I would like to better understand this. I know I can create a variable of Foo such as Foo morePoo and access the , and ; using the names but I just don't know how well. Strong application in parsing and compiler design.

Thank you for the info

I don't really understand your question. What are you asking? You might consider providing an SSCCE (that's a link) that demonstrates what you're talking about.

The fact that the OP has already received an answer in one of his other threads is a perfect example of why crossposting is frowned upon. I basically wasted my time reading this thread and posting my reply.
