Deprecated and replaced by {@link org.apache.commons.lang.enums} and will be removed in version 3.0.

All classes in this package are deprecated and repackaged to {@link org.apache.commons.lang.enums} since `enum` is a Java 1.5 keyword.

Provides an implementation of the C style `enum` in the Java world.

The classic example being an RGB color enumeration.

    public final class ColorEnum extends Enum {
        public static final ColorEnum RED = new ColorEnum("Red");
        public static final ColorEnum GREEN = new ColorEnum("Green");
        public static final ColorEnum BLUE = new ColorEnum("Blue");

        private ColorEnum(String color) {
            super(color);
        }

        public static ColorEnum getEnum(String color) {
            return (ColorEnum) getEnum(ColorEnum.class, color);
        }

        public static Map getEnumMap() {
            return getEnumMap(ColorEnum.class);
        }

        public static List getEnumList() {
            return getEnumList(ColorEnum.class);
        }

        public static Iterator iterator() {
            return iterator(ColorEnum.class);
        }
    }
