java - Sort enumeration values by name -

i have enumeration values follows.

public enum types { day, night, hello, age, sum; }

anyone please help me sort name when take values controller like

types.values());

thanks.

call arrays#sort comparator types:

types[] arr = types.values(); arrays.sort(arr, new comparator<types>() { @override public int compare(types o1, types o2) { homecoming o1.name().compareto(o2.name()); } }); // arr [age, day, hello, night, sum]

an alternate (but less maintainable) solution declare enum constants in alphabetical order:

public enum types { age, day, hello, night, sum }
