+1 LGTM
> Convert Resource.Type enum to class

> Project: Ambari

> The use of an enum for Resource.Type does not allow for on the fly additions
> of new resource types for the API. The new Ambari Views needs to be able to
> extend the API through the addition of new resource types.
> Converting from an enum to a class is pretty straightforward but has some
> limitations. For example, an enum can be used in a switch statement but a
> class can't. We need to provide a way to allow for this conversion with
> minimal code disruption.
