Java Enum Constructor Undefined

Question

Why am i getting an error "Constructor is undefined" is it in my eclipse IDE? is there something wrong with my code?

public enum EnumHSClass {
    PALADIN ("Paladin"),ROUGE("ROUGE");
}

Answer 1

If you expect your enums to have parameters, you need to declare a constructor and fields for those parameters.

public enum EnumHSClass {
    PALADIN ("Paladin"),ROUGE("ROUGE");
    private final String name;
    private EnumHSClass(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }
}

Answer 2

You need to provide a constructor in your enum like:

public enum EnumHSClass {

    PALADIN("Paladin"), ROUGE("ROUGE");

    String value;

    EnumHSClass(String value) {
        this.value = value;
    }
}

Note: The constructor for an enum type must be package-private or private access. It automatically creates the constants that are defined at the beginning of the enum body. You cannot invoke an enum constructor yourself.
