Enum SymbolNameType

java.lang.Object
java.lang.Enum<SymbolNameType>
org.jruby.util.SymbolNameType
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable<SymbolNameType>, java.lang.constant.Constable

public enum SymbolNameType extends Enum<SymbolNameType>
The characters within a Symbol can represent concepts in Ruby. This enum allows us to precalculate what the symbol could be if it is used in that context. We use the same names as MRI for convenience (except they use -1 to indicate what we will call OTHER).
