Enum Constant Detail

EXACT

public static final AuthComparison EXACT

The returned authentication context MUST be the exact match of at least one of the requested authentication contexts.

MINIMUM

public static final AuthComparison MINIMUM

The returned authentication context MUST be at least as strong as one of the requested authentication contexts.

MAXIMUM

public static final AuthComparison MAXIMUM

The returned authentication context MUST be as strong as possible without exceeding the strength of at least one of the requested authentication contexts.

Method Detail

values

public static AuthComparison[] 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 (AuthComparison c : AuthComparison.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static AuthComparison valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
