LinkType

java.lang.Object
- java.lang.Enum<LinkType>
- - com.sodius.oslc.core.process.model.LinkType

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<LinkType>
```
public enum LinkType
extends Enum<LinkType>
```
Describes a type of link between 2 OSLC resources.
Link types are grouped by AssociationType.
Here are some resources listing existing OSLC link types:
- Jazz wiki (association types): https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/CALM2010LinkTypes
- Jazz wiki (CLM): https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Deployment/IntegratingWithConfigurationManagementEnabledCLMApplications
- Jazz RM help page: https://jazz.net/help-dev/clm/index.jsp?re=1&topic=/com.ibm.rational.rrm.help.doc/topics/r_rm_link_domains.html
The set of supported link types can be restricted to a subset using a ProcessScope instance, that all methods returning link types in this class will use.

```
public static LinkType[] values()
```
    Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
```
for (LinkType c : LinkType.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static LinkType valueOf(String name)
```
    Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
    
    Returns:
    
    the enum constant with the specified name
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
    
    NullPointerException - if the argument is null
  - supportedValues
```
public static Collection<LinkType> supportedValues()
```
    Returns the link types that are supported, as determined by ProcessScope.
    
    Returns:
    
    the supported link types.

```
public static LinkType.Direction getDirection(URI propertyDefinition)
```
    Returns the link type direction for the given property definition.
