# Enum MultipleFieldStorage

java.lang.Object
java.lang.Enum<MultipleFieldStorage>
com.smartgwt.client.types.MultipleFieldStorage

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `ValueEnum`, `Serializable`, `Comparable<MultipleFieldStorage>`, `Constable`

public enum MultipleFieldStorage extends Enum<MultipleFieldStorage> implements ValueEnum
Options for how values are stored for a field that is `multiple:true`. See `DataSourceField.multipleStorage`.

- ## Enum Constant Summary

  Enum Constants
  Enum Constant
  Description
  `JSON`
  values are serialized to JSON.
  `NONE`
  no transformation is applied to values; server-side field value remains a Java List when passed to the execute(Fetch|Add|Update|Remove) method of the server-side DataSource class
  `SIMPLESTRING`
  values are saved as a simple delimeter-separated string.

- ## Method Summary

- ## Enum Constant Details

  - ### SIMPLESTRING

    public static final MultipleFieldStorage SIMPLESTRING
    values are saved as a simple delimeter-separated string. Delimeter can be configured via `DataSourceField.multipleStorageSeparator`. An empty array is stored as "", and null as the database `null` value.

    If this enumerated value is used in a `Component XML` file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "simpleString".

  - ### JSON

    public static final MultipleFieldStorage JSON
    values are serialized to JSON. Empty array as a distinct value from null (it appears as the text "[]").

    If this enumerated value is used in a `Component XML` file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "json".

  - ### NONE

    public static final MultipleFieldStorage NONE
    no transformation is applied to values; server-side field value remains a Java List when passed to the execute(Fetch|Add|Update|Remove) method of the server-side DataSource class

    If this enumerated value is used in a `Component XML` file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "none".

- ## Method Details

  - ### values

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

  - ### valueOf

    public static MultipleFieldStorage valueOf(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:
      `IllegalArgumentException` - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
      `NullPointerException` - if the argument is null

  - ### getValue

    public String getValue()
    Specified by:
      `getValue` in interface `ValueEnum`
