public enum PreservationMethodType
extends Enum<PreservationMethodType>

The definition of the available preservation method types (the method used to preserve specimens). With no exceptions, it mirrors the Preservation Method GBIF Vocabulary: link{http://rs.gbif.org/vocabulary/gbif/preservation_method.xml} and similarly This vocabulary was based on the PreservationMethodClassVoc from the BioCASe MetaProfile.

Method Detail

values

public static PreservationMethodType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (PreservationMethodType c : PreservationMethodType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
