Enum Class Stage

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<Stage>, Constable

public enum Stage
extends Enum<Stage>

The stage or "level" inside the framework at which a properties value is set.

JDA-Commands has the following stages in this order:

1. CONFIGURATION -> setting of builder properties, extension loading, construction of framework components
2. INITIALIZED -> after starting the framework (basically after JDACBuilder.start() completed), e.g. all definitions are indexed etc.
3. RUNTIME -> inside a runtime but outside of processing an GenericInteractionCreateEvent, e.g. when Instantiator.instance(Class, Introspection) is called
4. PREPARATION -> during the preparation of an GenericInteractionCreateEvent for the INTERACTION stage, e.g. where type adapters get called
5. INTERACTION -> when processing an GenericInteractionCreateEvent, e.g. in Middleware.accept(InvocationContext) or inside a user defined interaction controller method

Generally, a stage includes all properties that were set in a former stage:

• INTERACTION includes CONFIGURATION, INITIALIZED, RUNTIME and PREPARATION
• PREPARATION includes CONFIGURATION, INITIALIZED and RUNTIME
• RUNTIME includes CONFIGURATION and INITIALIZED
• INITIALIZED includes CONFIGURATION

To know in which stage a Property is available take a look at Property.stage().

More technical, a Stage with a certain ordinal contains all stages with a lower ordinal value:

stageA ⊆ stageB if stageA.ordinal < stageB.ordinal

Many user implementable methods are annotated with IntrospectionAccess. To get a hint in which stage this method will be called by JDA-Commands you can take a look at IntrospectionAccess.value().

Method Details

values

public static Stage[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.

Returns:

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

valueOf

public static Stage valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this class. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum class has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
