Gilles commented on MATH-811:
-----------------------------

bq. I think an enum with three choices (increasing, decreasing, both slope 
directions) is less confusing.

I think that it is more confusing; especially if we speak of "slope direction" 
(a slope cannot have _both_ directions).
If we really want to reduce the concept embodied in the enum to just "slope 
direction selection", it should be made clear in the name, e.g.:
{code}
public enum SlopeDirectionSelector {
    INCREASING,
    DECREASING,
    INCREASING_OR_DECREASING
}
{code}

Then the method "getSlopeSelection" should be renamed as
{code}
  SlopeDirectionSelector getSlopeDirectionSelector();
{code}

>
> We would like to select g function slope in CommonsMath event detection 
> feature.
> This would improve event detection for the final user (the possibility to 
> ignore some events, and less computation time) and also correct a bug found 
> while using OREKIT (see https://www.orekit.org/forge/issues/104) in our 
> applications. 
> The modification consists in adding a method (getSlopeSelection() : int) in 
> EventHandler, and modifying one conditionnal in the method evaluateStep 
> (class EventState). 
> We can provide modified code and unitary tests for this feature.
