Question

Our issue is like this:
We want to pass different enum types to a method and call the values() method on the type.

public enum Testing {
    A, B, C, D
}

public enum Retesting {
    E, F, G, H
}

public static Object[] getValues(Enum e) {
    return e.values(); // ! Compilation Error
}

public static void main(String[] args) {
    Testing t = Testing.A;
    getValues(t);
}

Does anyone know if how something like this should be achieved or if it’s possible at all?

Thank you

Try using:

e.getClass().getEnumConstants()
