Interface EnumValue

All Superinterfaces:

AnnotationProperty.ConstantValue

public interface EnumValue
extends AnnotationProperty.ConstantValue

When creating an Annotation, we may need to create an enum value without access to the enumeration.

In such a case, you can use this type when calling Annotation.BuilderBase.putValue(String, Object)
