Method Detail

values

public static HealpixTableInfo.HpxCoordSys[] 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 (HealpixTableInfo.HpxCoordSys c : HealpixTableInfo.HpxCoordSys.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:
an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static HealpixTableInfo.HpxCoordSys valueOf(java.lang.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:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null

getCharString

public java.lang.String getCharString()
Returns the 1-character string used to label this system in the FITS serialization.

Returns:
1-character string

getWord

public java.lang.String getWord()
Returns a human-readable short description of this system.

Returns:
description

fromCharacter

public static HealpixTableInfo.HpxCoordSys fromCharacter(char c)
Returns the instance of this class corresponding to a character label (as used in the FITS serialization). Null is returned if the character is not known.

Parameters:
c - coordinate system label
Returns:
coordinate system object, or null
