ExhaustiveMatch.Generator 1.0.2

GenerateMatch

Generate a .Match method to switch over types with a known set of cases. The idea is to create expression-style switch statements that ensure all conditions are handled.

The supported types are:

• enums: Match will take function parameters for each case of the enum

• enumeration classes: The source generator will infer each internal class case

  • feature is available in newer version of java
