Method Details

values

public static KeywordType[] values()

Returns the list of KeywordTypes.

Returns:

the list of codes declared in the current JVM.

family

public KeywordType[] family()

Returns the list of codes of the same kind as this code list element. Invoking this method is equivalent to invoking values(), except that this method can be invoked on an instance of the parent CodeList class.

Specified by:

family in interface ControlledVocabulary
