问题描述
我是一名几乎毕业的计算机科学学生,在我的编码生涯中,我发现很少的例子,除了代表标准卡片面孔的典型案例之外,枚举也被使用。 p>你知道枚举在日常编码中使用的任何聪明的方式吗?
为什么枚举这样重要的是,在什么情况下应该能够识别构建枚举是最好的方法?
是,和。
枚举的情况
从Java 6开始,是一个凌乱的例子,可以从使用枚举
(以及其他改进)中获益很多。
目前日历
定义了以下常量():
// int constant antipattern from java.util.Calendar
public static final int JANUARY = 0;
public static final int FEBRUARY = 1;
...
public static final int SUNDAY = 1;
public static final int MONDAY = 2;
...
这些都是 int
,即使它们显然代表不同的概念实体。
以下是一些严重后果:
- 很脆弱;在需要的时候,必须注意分配不同的数字。
- 如果错误地设置
MONDAY = 0;
,SUNDAY = 0 ;
,那么我们有MONDAY == SUNDAY
- 如果错误地设置
- 没有命名空间,没有类型安全,因为一切都只是一个
int
:
- 我们可以
setMonth(JANUARY)
,但我们也可以setMonth(THURSDAY)
或setMonth(42)
- 谁知道什么(一个真正的方法!)!
- 我们可以
相比之下,我们可以这样做:
//日历库的假设枚举
枚举月{
JANUARY,FEBRUARY,...
}
枚举DayOfWeek {
SUNDAY,MONDAY,...
}
现在我们不必担心大约 MONDAY == SUNDAY
(永远不会发生!),而且由于 Month
和 DayOfWeek
是不同的类型, setMonth(MONDAY)
不编译。
此外,在这里是一些前后代码:
// BEFORE with int constants
for(int month = JANUARY;月 ...
}
这里我们正在做所有各种假设,例如 JANUARY + 1 == FEBRUARY
等。另一方面,枚举
对应更简洁,更可读,并且做出较少的假设(因此更少的错误机会):
// AFTER with enum
for(Month月:Month.values()){
...
}
实例字段
在Java中,枚举
是一个 class
具有许多特殊属性,但是类
,如果需要,可以定义实例方法和字段。 / p>
请考虑以下示例:
// BEFORE:with int constants
public static final int NORTH = 0;
public static final int EAST = 1;
public static final int SOUTH = 2;
public static final int WEST = 3;
public static int degreeFor(int direction){
return direction * 90; //相当假设!
//必须与int常量保持同步!
// ...
for(int dir = NORTH; dir< = WEST; dir ++){
... degreeFor(dir)。 ..
}
另一方面,使用枚举
你可以这样写:
枚举方向{
NORTH(0),EAST (90),南(180),西(270);
//这么明显!所以很容易阅读!所以很容易写!所以很容易维护!
private final int degree;
Direction(int degree){this.degree = degree; }
public int getDegree(){return degrees; }
}
// ...
(方向dir:Direction.values()){
... dir.getDegree()...
}
实例方法的情况
考虑以下示例:
static int apply(int op1,int op2,int operator){
switch(operator){
case PLUS:return op1 + op2;
case MINUS:return op1 - op2;
case ...
default:throw new IllegalArgumentException(Unknown operator!);
}
}
如上例所示, enum
在Java中可以有实例方法,但不仅如此,但每个常量也可以有自己的具体 @Override
。这将显示在以下代码中:
枚举运算符{
PLUS {int apply(int op1,int op2) {return op1 + op2; }},
MINUS {int apply(int op1,int op2){return op1 - op2; }},
...
;
abstract int apply(int op1,int op2);
}
EnumMap
以下是有效的Java第2版的引用:
基本上与以前一样,您可能会有这样的情况:
// BEFORE,使用int常量和数组索引
员工[] employeeOfTheMonth = ...
employeeOfTheMonth [JANUARY] = jamesBond;
现在您可以:
// AFTER,with enum and EnumMap
Map< Month,Employee> employeeOfTheMonth = ...
employeeOfTheMonth.put(Month.JANUARY,jamesBond);
EnumSet
通常使用两个 int
常量的幂在C ++中表示位集。这依赖于。一个例子可能是这样的:
public static final int BUTTON_A = 1;
public static final int BUTTON_B = 2;
public static final int BUTTON_X = 4;
public static final int BUTTON_Y = 8;
int buttonState = BUTTON_A | BUTTON_X; // A& X被按下!
if((buttonState& BUTTON_B)!= 0){// B被按下...
...
}
使用枚举
和 EnumSet
这可以看起来像这样:
枚举按钮{
A,B,X,Y;
}
设置< Button> buttonState = EnumSet.of(Button.A,Button.X); // A& X被按下!
if(buttonState.contains(Button.B)){// B被按下...
...
}

I am an almost-graduating computer science student, and throughout my coding career, I've found very few instances where enumerations, except for canonical cases such as representing the faces of a standard deck of cards, are used.
Do you know of any clever ways that enums are used in everyday coding?
Why are enumerations so important and in what situations should one be able to identify that building an enumeration is the best approach?
These are the main arguments for enum
, EnumMap
, and EnumSet
by short examples.
The case for enum
As of Java 6, java.util.Calendar
is an example of a messy class that could've benefited a lot from using enum
(among other improvements).
Currently Calendar
defines the following constants (among many others):
// int constant antipattern from java.util.Calendar
public static final int JANUARY = 0;
public static final int FEBRUARY = 1;
...
public static final int SUNDAY = 1;
public static final int MONDAY = 2;
...
These are all int
, even though they obviously represent different conceptual entities.
The following are some serious consequences:
- It's brittle; care must be taken to assign different numbers whenever needed.
- If by mistake we set
MONDAY = 0;
,SUNDAY = 0;
, then we haveMONDAY == SUNDAY
- If by mistake we set
- There is no namespace and no type-safety, since everything is just an
int
:- We can
setMonth(JANUARY)
, but we can alsosetMonth(THURSDAY)
orsetMonth(42)
- Who knows what
set(int,int,int,int,int,int)
(a real method!) does!
- We can
By contrast, we could have something like this instead:
// Hypothetical enums for a Calendar library
enum Month {
JANUARY, FEBRUARY, ...
}
enum DayOfWeek {
SUNDAY, MONDAY, ...
}
Now we never have to worry about MONDAY == SUNDAY
(it can never happen!), and since Month
and DayOfWeek
are different types, setMonth(MONDAY)
does not compile.
Additionally, here are some before-and-after codes:
// BEFORE with int constants
for (int month = JANUARY; month <= DECEMBER; month++) {
...
}
Here we're making all sorts of assumptions, e.g. JANUARY + 1 == FEBRUARY
, etc. On the other hand, the enum
counterpart is both more concise, more readable, and makes less assumptions (and therefore less chance for bugs):
// AFTER with enum
for (Month month : Month.values()) {
...
}
The case for instance fields
In Java, enum
is a class
that has many special properties, but a class
nonetheless, allowing you to define instance methods and fields if necessary.
Consider the following example:
// BEFORE: with int constants
public static final int NORTH = 0;
public static final int EAST = 1;
public static final int SOUTH = 2;
public static final int WEST = 3;
public static int degreeFor(int direction) {
return direction * 90; // quite an assumption!
// must be kept in-sync with the int constants!
}
//...
for (int dir = NORTH; dir <= WEST; dir++) {
... degreeFor(dir) ...
}
On the other hand, with enum
you can write something like this:
enum Direction {
NORTH(0), EAST(90), SOUTH(180), WEST(270);
// so obvious! so easy to read! so easy to write! so easy to maintain!
private final int degree;
Direction(int degree) { this.degree = degree; }
public int getDegree() { return degree; }
}
//...
for (Direction dir : Direction.values()) {
... dir.getDegree() ...
}
The case for instance methods
Consider the following example:
static int apply(int op1, int op2, int operator) {
switch (operator) {
case PLUS : return op1 + op2;
case MINUS : return op1 - op2;
case ...
default: throw new IllegalArgumentException("Unknown operator!");
}
}
As shown in previous example, enum
in Java can have instance methods, but not only that but each constant can have its own specific @Override
as well. This is shown in the following code:
enum Operator {
PLUS { int apply(int op1, int op2) { return op1 + op2; } },
MINUS { int apply(int op1, int op2) { return op1 - op2; } },
...
;
abstract int apply(int op1, int op2);
}
The case for EnumMap
Here's a quote from Effective Java 2nd Edition:
Essentially where as before you may have something like this:
// BEFORE, with int constants and array indexing
Employee[] employeeOfTheMonth = ...
employeeOfTheMonth[JANUARY] = jamesBond;
Now you can have:
// AFTER, with enum and EnumMap
Map<Month, Employee> employeeOfTheMonth = ...
employeeOfTheMonth.put(Month.JANUARY, jamesBond);
The case for EnumSet
Power of two int
constants are often used e.g. in C++ to denote bit sets. This relies on bitwise operations. An example may look something like this:
public static final int BUTTON_A = 1;
public static final int BUTTON_B = 2;
public static final int BUTTON_X = 4;
public static final int BUTTON_Y = 8;
int buttonState = BUTTON_A | BUTTON_X; // A & X are pressed!
if ((buttonState & BUTTON_B) != 0) { // B is pressed...
...
}
With enum
and EnumSet
, this can look something like this:
enum Button {
A, B, X, Y;
}
Set<Button> buttonState = EnumSet.of(Button.A, Button.X); // A & X are pressed!
if (buttonState.contains(Button.B)) { // B is pressed...
...
}
