SSS Software Documentation 

Abstract

This document contains API documentation for the enumeration classes in the SSS Utility and Problem Domain software.

Notes

The enumerations listed herein will be modified to line up with those of ALMA. This means we will be making alterations such as:

In addition, we have weeding of our own that we need to do. Some of our enumerations need to be merged in order to eliminate redundancies and confusing constructs. We also need to figure out what to do with the placeholders in the proposal package, now that Charlottesville is handling proposals.

Enumerations

A simple semi-colon delimited text file may be found here. The first column in the list is the java package name, the second is the unqualified java class name, and the remainder are the enumeration values. Links to the java docs are presented in the tables below.
