Enum (Java 2 Platform SE 5.0) (676 words) |
 | Returns the ordinal of this enumeration constant (its position in its enum declaration, where the initial constant is assigned an ordinal of zero). |
| This guarantees that enums are never cloned, which is necessary to preserve their "singleton" status. |
| Enum constants are only comparable to other enum constants of the same enum type. |
| ENUM (3184 words) |
| ENUM is considered appropriate as an infrastructure application because it provides a set of DNS-based resource directories, referenced by phone number, for use by various ENUM-enabled application clients (such as telephones, SIP servers, and voice messaging systems). |
| ENUM is not intended for this use, although it may have a place in countries that do not have a centralised database administration. |
| ENUM would be a subscriber-controlled "opt-in" system to "announce," over the Internet, the availability of a particular telephone number to accept service sessions and how to manage those sessions as a result of having subscribed to an ENUM-enabled service. |
