Java Language Enums Documenting enums
Example
Not always the enum name is clear enough to be understood. To document an enum, use standard javadoc:
/**
* United States coins
*/
public enum Coins {
/**
* One-cent coin, commonly known as a penny,
* is a unit of currency equaling one-hundredth
* of a United States dollar
*/
PENNY(1),
/**
* A nickel is a five-cent coin equaling
* five-hundredth of a United States dollar
*/
NICKEL(5),
/**
* The dime is a ten-cent coin refers to
* one tenth of a United States dollar
*/
DIME(10),
/**
* The quarter is a US coin worth 25 cents,
* one-fourth of a United States dollar
*/
QUARTER(25);
private int value;
Coins(int value){
this.value = value;
}
public int getValue(){
return value;
}
}
