Is There A Way To Get An ENUM Value Out Of A JSONObject?

togaboy531

I am trying to extract an enum value from a JSON file. I just automatically typed in getEnum("typeID") and quickly realized that's not something that exists. Is there any way to go about doing this?

Well, Json (and JavaScript) have no concept of enum, so you should indicate more precisely what kind of data you have, what it looks like.

When the Jackson library is serializing a Java enum value, it just provides the string representation of the value.

Or perhaps you have a simple list / array?
