Enum ProcessConstants.TemplateUsage

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Comparable<ProcessConstants.TemplateUsage>
    Enclosing class:
    ProcessConstants

    public static enum ProcessConstants.TemplateUsage
    extends Enum<ProcessConstants.TemplateUsage>
    The usage of a template distinguishes whether it may be used only as a subprocess and if so whether it is copied and therefore physically integrated in the surrounding template or it is referenced. The latter recognises modifications/derivations of the template and allows a migration of the corresponding subprocess-instances.

      • NO_SUBPROCESS

        public static final ProcessConstants.TemplateUsage NO_SUBPROCESS
        The process template may not be used as a subprocess. States valid for subprocess usage are ignored.
      • AS_COPY

        public static final ProcessConstants.TemplateUsage AS_COPY
        The process template may only be used as a subprocess by incorporating the graph structure in the surrounding process template.
      • AS_REFERENCE

        public static final ProcessConstants.TemplateUsage AS_REFERENCE
        The process template may be referenced by a node in another template. Referencing a process template resembles referencing an activity template.
      • COPY_OR_REFERENCE

        public static final ProcessConstants.TemplateUsage COPY_OR_REFERENCE
        The process template can be used either as copied subprocess or as referenced subprocess. The process modeller has to specify whether the semantics of copy or that of a reference is desired.

      • values

        public static ProcessConstants.TemplateUsage[] 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 (ProcessConstants.TemplateUsage c : ProcessConstants.TemplateUsage.values())
            System.out.println(c);
        
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
      • valueOf

        public static ProcessConstants.TemplateUsage 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
      • getCode

        public int getCode()
      • valueOf

        public static ProcessConstants.TemplateUsage valueOf​(int code)
        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:
        code - 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
