IOFormat (License3j 3.1.0-SNAPSHOT API)

java.lang.Object
- java.lang.Enum<IOFormat>
- - javax0.license3j.io.IOFormat

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<IOFormat>
```
public enum IOFormat
extends java.lang.Enum<IOFormat>
```
License can be stored in files in three different format:
1. BINARY is as the name suggests binary format
2. BASE64 is the same as binary but encoded to be ascii using the Base64 ncoding
3. STRING is a textual, human readable format that can be edited using text editor

```
public static IOFormat[] 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 (IOFormat c : IOFormat.values()) System.out.println(c);
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static IOFormat valueOf(java.lang.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:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
    
    java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
