## Enum DescriptorProtos.MethodOptions.IdempotencyLevel

- java.lang.Object
- - java.lang.Enum<DescriptorProtos.MethodOptions.IdempotencyLevel>
  - - com.google.protobuf.DescriptorProtos.MethodOptions.IdempotencyLevel

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Internal.EnumLite, ProtocolMessageEnum, java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<DescriptorProtos.MethodOptions.IdempotencyLevel>
  Enclosing class:
    DescriptorProtos.MethodOptions

      public static enum DescriptorProtos.MethodOptions.IdempotencyLevel
      extends java.lang.Enum<DescriptorProtos.MethodOptions.IdempotencyLevel>
      implements ProtocolMessageEnum

       Is this method side-effect-free (or safe in HTTP parlance), or idempotent,
       or neither? HTTP based RPC implementation may choose GET verb for safe
       methods, and PUT verb for idempotent methods instead of the default POST.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### values

          public static DescriptorProtos.MethodOptions.IdempotencyLevel[] 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 (DescriptorProtos.MethodOptions.IdempotencyLevel c : DescriptorProtos.MethodOptions.IdempotencyLevel.values())
              System.out.println(c);

      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        `java.lang.NullPointerException` - if the argument is null
