This class is used for implementing enumerated values. An enumeration is represented by a class derived from Enumerated. The derived class defines what are the permitted values in the enumeration. An enumerated value is represented by an instance of the derived class. It can be represented : - as an integer - as a string

This API is a Sun Microsystems internal API and is subject to change without notice.
