Gilles commented on MATH-811:
-----------------------------

bq. as the enumeration itself does not select anything (it is not a selector)

It depends on how you see it.
It was precisely my point that either we represent "slope direction" (which can 
have only two values) or we restrict usage as a selector and _indeed_, in my 
view, the enum with more than two elements contains the notion of selection. 
Note the name "getSlopeDirectionSelector" (and not something like 
"selectAllowedSlopeDirections"): the "allowed slope directions" will be 
selected _later_, i.e. in the code that uses the value returned by 
"getSlopeDirectionSelector".

But I agree that it could be confusing, hence my preference to represent the 
two "slope directions", and return a set with both values to mean that both are 
allowed!

> We would like to select g function slope in CommonsMath event detection 
> feature.
> This would improve event detection for the final user (the possibility to 
> ignore some events, and less computation time) and also correct a bug found 
> while using OREKIT (see https://www.orekit.org/forge/issues/104) in our 
> applications. 
> The modification consists in adding a method (getSlopeSelection() : int) in 
> EventHandler, and modifying one conditionnal in the method evaluateStep 
> (class EventState). 
> We can provide modified code and unitary tests for this feature.
