## Nested Class Summary

### Nested classes/interfaces declared in class Enum

`Enum.EnumDesc<E>`

## Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants
Enum Constant
Description
`ELEMENT`
Standard namespace for elements of a collection object.
`METHOD`
Standard namespace for methods of an object.
`PROPERTY`
Standard namespace for properties of an object.

## Method Summary

Modifier and Type
Method
Description
`static StandardNamespace`
`findFirst(Operation op)`
If the passed in operation is a `NamespaceOperation`, or a `NamedOperation` wrapping a `NamespaceOperation`, then it returns the first (if any) `StandardNamespace` in its namespace list.
`static StandardNamespace`
`valueOf(String name)`
Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name.
`static StandardNamespace[]`
`values()`
Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.

### Methods declared in class Enum

`clone, compareTo, describeConstable, equals, finalize, getDeclaringClass, hashCode, name, ordinal, toString, valueOf`

### Methods declared in class Object

`getClass, notify, notifyAll, wait, wait, wait`

## Enum Constant Details

### PROPERTY

public static final StandardNamespace PROPERTY
Standard namespace for properties of an object.

### ELEMENT

public static final StandardNamespace ELEMENT
Standard namespace for elements of a collection object.

### METHOD

public static final StandardNamespace METHOD
Standard namespace for methods of an object. The method objects retrieved through a `StandardOperation.GET` on this namespace can be (and where object semantics allows they should be) unbound, that is: not bound to the object they were retrieved through. When they are used with `StandardOperation.CALL` an explicit "this" receiver argument is always passed to them. Of course bound methods can be returned if the object semantics requires them and such methods are free to ignore the receiver passed in the `CALL` operation or even raise an error when it is different from the one the method is bound to, or exhibit any other behavior their semantics requires in such case.

## Method Details

### values

public static StandardNamespace[] values()
Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.

Returns:
  an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared

### valueOf

public static StandardNamespace valueOf(String name)
Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this class. (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 class has no constant with the specified name
  `NullPointerException` - if the argument is null

### findFirst

public static StandardNamespace findFirst(Operation op)
If the passed in operation is a `NamespaceOperation`, or a `NamedOperation` wrapping a `NamespaceOperation`, then it returns the first (if any) `StandardNamespace` in its namespace list. If the passed operation is not a namespace operation (optionally wrapped in a named operation), or if it doesn't have any standard namespaces in it, returns `null`.

Parameters:
  `op` - the operation
Returns:
  the first standard namespace in the operation's namespace list
