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 DesignatorCodeField.TBD, i.e. combine the class name, a period, and a class variable (enumeration) name.
