Hi Reinout,
I guess your Person object has a private int sex; instead of private
SexType sex;
So what happens is that you are trying to convert a SexType to an
Integer which obviously returns an
illegalArgumentException.
Put it like this and it should work.
public class Person {
Hi all,
If I have an enum 'SexTypes' in the class Person like this:
public static enum SexTypes {
SEX_UNKNOWN(0),
SEX_MALE(1),
SEX_FEMALE(2),
SEX_NOT_APPLICABLE(9);
/* Values for sex are taken from ISO 5218:1977 Representation of Human Sexes */
private final int
