- Method Detail
  - values
```
public static ReflectionSupport.VisibilityConstraint[] values()
```
    Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
```
for (ReflectionSupport.VisibilityConstraint c : ReflectionSupport.VisibilityConstraint.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static ReflectionSupport.VisibilityConstraint 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
  - accepts
```
public boolean accepts(int modifiers)
```
    Determine if a given set of modifiers, expressed as an integer mask, meets this visibility constraint.
    
    Parameters:
    
    modifiers - The modifiers to check.
    
    Returns:
    
    True if the modifiers are consistent with this constraint.
  - accepts
```
public boolean accepts(Member member)
```
    Determine if a given member meets this visibility constraint.
    
    Parameters:
    
    member - The member to check.
    
    Returns:
    
    True if the member's visibility is consistent with this constraint.
  - getMessage
```
public String getMessage()
```
    Get the string message describing this constraint, for use in diagnostic output.
    
    Returns:
    
    A readable description of this constraint.
  - toString
```
public String toString()
```
    Overrides:
    
    toString in class Enum<ReflectionSupport.VisibilityConstraint>
