Enums are just like Classes in that they are typed  Your current code just checks if it is an Enum without specifying what type of Enum it is a part of   Because you haven t specified the type of the enum  you will have to use reflection to find out what the list of enum values is   You can do it like so   enumValue getDeclaringClass   getEnumConstants      This will return an array of Enum objects  with each being one of the available options
