Hi Tim,

Heads up that I completed the implementation of j.l.Enum today; so you
can go mad and use enum types in classlib code for real now.


Cool!

I wrote a bunch of tests but if you could hammer on it and try to break
it that would be good :-)


And did you run it? :-) It fails for me :-(

Thanks,
Stepan.

If you take a look at the implementation [1] of valueOf(Class, String)
it uses reflection to get the enum constant values.  I'm not sure how
'popular' the valueOf() method is, but since the values don't change
they are a good candidate for being cached if it proves to be called
frequently.  I'm happy to do that if people think it is worthwhile.

Regards,
Tim
