基本用法

enum Day {    SUNDAY, MONDAY, TUESDAY, WENDSDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY;}

枚舉是常量，所以應該用大寫。

枚舉是對象

枚舉隱含地繼承了java.lang.Enum，所以它具有java.lang.Enum的屬性和方法。遍歷枚舉：

public class Main {    public static void main(String[] args) {        for(Day day:Day.values()) {            System.out.PRintln(day);        }    }}

枚舉可以帶字段和方法，以下示例來自官方The Java? Tutorials

public enum EnumDemo {    AOBJECT("field one", "field two");    private String field1;    private String field2;    EnumDemo(String val1, String val2){        this.field1 = val1;        this.field2 = val2;    }    public void printFields(){        System.out.println(this.field1);        System.out.println(this.field2);    }    public static void main(String[] args) {        EnumDemo.AOBJECT.printFields();    }}

以下現實中的示例來自官方的Java Tutorial:

public enum Planet {    MERCURY (3.303e+23, 2.4397e6),    VENUS   (4.869e+24, 6.0518e6),    EARTH   (5.976e+24, 6.37814e6),    MARS    (6.421e+23, 3.3972e6),    JUPITER (1.9e+27,   7.1492e7),    SATURN  (5.688e+26, 6.0268e7),    URANUS  (8.686e+25, 2.5559e7),    NEPTUNE (1.024e+26, 2.4746e7);    private final double mass;   // in kilograms    private final double radius; // in meters    Planet(double mass, double radius) {        this.mass = mass;        this.radius = radius;    }    private double mass() { return mass; }    private double radius() { return radius; }    // universal gravitational constant  (m3 kg-1 s-2)    public static final double G = 6.67300E-11;    double surfaceGravity() {        return G * mass / (radius * radius);    }    double surfaceWeight(double otherMass) {        return otherMass * surfaceGravity();    }    public static void main(String[] args) {        Double earthWeight = 120;        for(Planet p: Planet.values()){            System.out.println(p.surfaceGravity());            System.out.println(p.surfaceWeight(earthWeight/EARTH.surfaceGravity()));        }    }}

枚舉是singleton，可以用枚舉來構建一個Singleton

public enum Singleton {    INSTANCE(new String[]{"arg1", "arg2"});    String[] myArgs;    Singleton(String[] args){        this.myArgs = args;    }    public static Singleton getInstance(){        return INSTANCE;    }    public static void main(String[] args) {        for(String arg : INSTANCE.myArgs)            System.out.println(arg);    }}
