EnumerationDescription

All Superinterfaces:

NamedElement

All Known Implementing Classes:

EnumerationDescription.AbstractBase, EnumerationDescription.ForLoadedEnumeration, EnumerationDescription.Latent
```
public interface EnumerationDescription
extends NamedElement
```
Describes an enumeration value. Note that the Object.toString() method always returns the value as if the method was not overridden, i.e. the name of the enumeration constant.
