Methods

values

public static AclEntryPermission[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows: 

for (AclEntryPermission c : AclEntryPermission.values())
    System.out.println(c);

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