Commons.Lang, a package of Java utility classes for the
classes that are in java.lang's hierarchy, or are considered to be so
standard as to justify existence in java.lang.

/**
* Abstract superclass for type-safe enums with integer values suitable
* for use in switch statements.
*
* NOTE:Due to the way in which Java ClassLoaders work, comparing
* Enum objects should always be done using the equals() method,
* not ==. The equals() method will try == first so
* in most cases the effect is the same.
*
* To use this class, it must be subclassed. For example:
*
*
* public final class JavaVersionEnum extends ValuedEnum {
* //standard enums for version of JVM
* public static final int JAVA1_0_VALUE = 100;
* public static final int JAVA1_1_VALUE = 110;
* public static final int JAVA1_2_VALUE = 120;
* public static final int JAVA1_3_VALUE = 130;
* public static final JavaVersionEnum JAVA1_0 = new JavaVersionEnum( "Java 1.0", JAVA1_0_VALUE );
* public static final JavaVersionEnum JAVA1_1 = new JavaVersionEnum( "Java 1.1", JAVA1_1_VALUE );
* public static final JavaVersionEnum JAVA1_2 = new JavaVersionEnum( "Java 1.2", JAVA1_2_VALUE );
* public static final JavaVersionEnum JAVA1_3 = new JavaVersionEnum( "Java 1.3", JAVA1_3_VALUE );
*
* private JavaVersionEnum(String name, int value) {
* super( name, value );
* }
*
* public static JavaVersionEnum getEnum(String javaVersion) {
* return (JavaVersionEnum) getEnum(JavaVersionEnum.class, javaVersion);
* }
*
* public static JavaVersionEnum getEnum(int javaVersion) {
* return (JavaVersionEnum) getEnum(JavaVersionEnum.class, javaVersion);
* }
*
* public static Map getEnumMap() {
* return getEnumMap(JavaVersionEnum.class);
* }
*
* public static List getEnumList() {
* return getEnumList(JavaVersionEnum.class);
* }
*
* public static Iterator iterator() {
* return iterator(JavaVersionEnum.class);
* }
* }
*
*
* The above class could then be used as follows:
*
*
* public void doSomething(JavaVersionEnum ver) {
* switch (ver.getValue()) {
* case JAVA1_0_VALUE:
* // ...
* break;
* case JAVA1_1_VALUE:
* // ...
* break;
* //...
* }
* }
*
*
* As shown, each enum has a name and a value. These can be accessed using
* getName and getValue.
*
* The getEnum and iterator methods are recommended.
* Unfortunately, Java restrictions require these to be coded as shown in each subclass.
* An alternative choice is to use the {@link EnumUtils} class.
*
* @deprecated Replaced by {@link org.apache.commons.lang.enums.ValuedEnum org.apache.commons.lang.enums.ValuedEnum}
* and will be removed in version 3.0. All classes in this package are deprecated and repackaged to
* {@link org.apache.commons.lang.enums} since enum is a Java 1.5 keyword.
