Getting String value from enum in Java -

i have enum defined , able obtain strings individual statuses. how should write such method?

i can int values of statuses option of getting string values ints well.

public enum status {     pause(0),     start(1),     stop(2);      private final int value;      private status(int value) {         this.value = value     }      public int getvalue() {         return value;     } } 

you can use values() method:

for instance status.values()[0] return pause in case, if print it, tostring() called , "pause" printed.
