Question

我正在浏览文档和源代码，因为我想确定values（）总是按照声明枚举值的顺序返回一个数组。事实证明，据我所知，它不是in the documentation。

我检查了Enum类的源代码，但没有运气（there is a related, private "getValues" method）。

所以我猜测一些编译器/解释器-foo已经开始创建一个扩展Enum的类，如下所示：

public static enum MyEnum

在编译期间，values（）也被静态转换为硬编码数组吗？或者它实际上是在运行时调用的方法，如果是，它在哪里定义？

Answer 1

values()方法是enum类型定义的一部分。不要与Enum基类混淆。正式定义在Section 8.9 of the JLS中，它确实指定返回的顺序与它们的声明顺序相匹配。

Answer 2

从下面通过反汇编枚举获得的字节码可以看出，枚举上的values()方法只返回包含所有声明的枚举常量的private static数组的副本。此数组ENUM$VALUES填入静态初始化块。

DaysOfTheWeek.java

public enum DaysOfTheWeek {
    MONDAY,
    TUESDAY,
    WEDNESDAY,
    THURSDAY,
    FRIDAY,
    SATURDAY,
    SUNDAY
}

DaysOfTheWeek.java反汇编

在静态块之后，标记为0-92的字节码初始化枚举常量，标记为94-139的字节码将这些常量放入数组中，标记为140的字节码将数组分配给ENUM$VALUES静态字段。类。 values()方法中的代码只需通过调用ENUM$VALUES来创建分配给System.arraycopy字段的数组的副本，然后返回副本。

Answer 3

您提供的链接（其中有私有getValues方法）来自Apache Harmony（版本6，这是一个开源Java SE）。它们与Oracle的Enum类（没有私有getValues方法）有不同的实现。

Oracle java（撰写本文时版本1.6.0-21）具有valueOf(Class<T> enumType, String name)。这是它的实现：

 /**
     * Returns the enum constant of the specified enum type with the
     * specified name.  The name must match exactly an identifier used
     * to declare an enum constant in this type.  (Extraneous whitespace
     * characters are not permitted.) 
     *
     * @param enumType the <tt>Class</tt> object of the enum type from which
     *      to return a constant
     * @param name the name of the constant to return
     * @return the enum constant of the specified enum type with the
     *      specified name
     * @throws IllegalArgumentException if the specified enum type has
     *         no constant with the specified name, or the specified
     *         class object does not represent an enum type
     * @throws NullPointerException if <tt>enumType</tt> or <tt>name</tt>
     *         is null
     * @since 1.5
     */
    public static <T extends Enum<T>> T valueOf(Class<T> enumType,
                                                String name) {
        T result = enumType.enumConstantDirectory().get(name);
        if (result != null)
            return result;
        if (name == null)
            throw new NullPointerException("Name is null");
        throw new IllegalArgumentException(
            "No enum const " + enumType +"." + name);
    }

从本质上讲，Apache实现了valueOf的不同之处。

Enum（或enum）有一个名为values()的公共静态方法，它返回enum内声明的枚举值常量。这是由编译器填充的。

Answer 4

我将添加到Devon的答案中，根据定义，编译器会添加values()方法。
来自枚举tutorial：

编译器自动添加一些创建一个特殊的方法枚举。例如，他们有静态 values方法，返回一个数组包含所有的值按照声明的顺序枚举。

从哪里来的Enum.values（）？
