## Class StringEnumAbstractBase

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.xmlbeans.StringEnumAbstractBase

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable
  Direct Known Subclasses:
    StringEnumValue

      public class StringEnumAbstractBase
      extends Object
      implements Serializable

  The base class for code-generated string enumeration value classes.

  Subclasses are intended to be final types with a finite set of singleton instances. Each instance has a string value, which it returns via `toString()`, and an int value for the purpose of switching in case statements, returned via `intValue()`.

  Each subclass manages an instance of `StringEnumAbstractBase.Table`, which holds all the singleton instances for the subclass. A Table can return a singleton instance given a String or an integer code.
