# An enum object is used to describe possible attribute values within a
# MetamodelBuilder attribute definition. An attribute defined this way can only
# take the values specified when creating the Enum object.
# Literal values can only be symbols or true or false.
# Optionally a name may be specified for the enum object.
#
# Examples:
#
# Enum.new(:name => "AnimalEnum", :literals => [:cat, :dog])
# Enum.new(:literals => [:cat, :dog])
# Enum.new([:cat, :dog])
#
class Enum
attr_reader :name, :literals
# Creates a new named enum type object consisting of the elements passed as arguments.
