public class AntennaPatternTypefield
extends java.lang.Object

Antenna Pattern Type field -- This field shall specify the type of representation used for the radiation pattern from the antenna. The value of this field shall determine the interpretation of the Antenna Pattern Parameter field. This field shall be represented by a 16-bit enumeration (see Section 9 in EBV-DOC).

This is effectively a C-style enumeration. Java doesn't do enumerations like C, so you have to wrap a class around it. It's a bit more typing, but pretty simple-minded. Note that the variables are declared public. The default for access is package-wide, but these variables might need to be accessed from outside the package. Since all the variables are final (i.e. constant), nobody can change anything anyway, so this is no biggie.

To use these enumerations in your Java code, import the package first:

import mil.navy.nps.disEnumerations.*;
You access this via something like AntennaPatternTypefield.SPHERICALHARMONIC, i.e. combine the class name, a period, and a class variable (enumeration) name.
