fromStringFuzzy

public static Enum<?> fromStringFuzzy(String value,
                                      Enum<?>[] constants)

Convert a string to an enum with more permissive rules than Enum valueOf().

This method is more permissive in the following ways:

• Whitespace is permitted but stripped from the input.
• Dashes and periods in the value are converted to underscores.
• Matching against the enum values is case insensitive.

Parameters:

value - The string to convert.

constants - The list of constants for the Enum to which you wish to convert.

Returns:

The enum or null, if no enum constant matched the input value.
