    • getEnumValueOfMethod

      default Optional<MethodElement> getEnumValueOfMethod()
      Returns the static method used to resolve an enum constant by name.

      Java enums use the standard Enum.valueOf(Class, String) path and therefore return an empty optional. Language implementations can expose their compiler-modelled lookup method so generated introspections can resolve constants without reflection.

      Returns:
      The enum constant lookup method, if one is available
