Enum Constant Detail

Standard

public static final SerializationModeEnum Standard

Standard complete file serialization [PDF:1.6:3.4].

It writes the entire file, generating a single-section cross-reference table and removing obsolete data structures. It reduces the serialization size, but it's more computationally-intensive (slower).

Incremental

public static final SerializationModeEnum Incremental

Standard incremental file serialization [PDF:1.6:2.2.7].

It leaves original contents intact, appending changes to the end of the file along with an additional cross-reference table section. It increases the serialization size, but it's faster.

Linearized

public static final SerializationModeEnum Linearized

Linearized file serialization [PDF:1.6:F].

It organizes the file to enable efficient incremental access in a network environment. It increases the serialization size and it's more computationally-intensive (slower).

Method Detail

values

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

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static SerializationModeEnum 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
