enums

Overview ¶

Package enums collects allowed values of enum-like types: named types with a builtin underlying type and a const block, e.g.

type ModeEnum int

const (
	ModeUnknown ModeEnum = iota // unknown
	ModeFast    ModeEnum = iota // fast
)

A const value is its line comment (stringer -linecomment), or its string literal for string types. A type is an enum only if every const of it has one of those, so typed constants like sizes or timeouts are not listed. The `unknown` value and unexported consts of an exported type are skipped: they mark an unset value or a bound, not a valid one.
