Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants
Enum Constant	Description
`ASCII`	8-bit byte that contains a 7-bit ASCII code; the last byte must be NUL (binary zero)
`BYTE`	8-bit unsigned integer
`DOUBLE`	Double precision (8-byte) IEEE format
`FLOAT`	Single precision (4-byte) IEEE format
`LONG`	32-bit (4-byte) unsigned integer
`RATIONAL`	Two LONGs: the first represents the numerator of a fraction; the second, the denominator
`SBYTE`	An 8-bit signed (twos-complement) integer
`SHORT`	16-bit (2-byte) unsigned integer
`SLONG`	A 32-bit (4-byte) signed (twos-complement) integer
`SRATIONAL`	Two SLONG’s: the first represents the numerator of a fraction, the second the denominator
`SSHORT`	A 16-bit (2-byte) signed (twos-complement) integer
`UNDEFINED`	An 8-bit byte that may contain anything, depending on the definition of the field

```
public static FieldType[] 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 (FieldType c : FieldType.values()) System.out.println(c);
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static FieldType valueOf(String name)
```
    Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
    
    Returns:
    
    the enum constant with the specified name
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
    
    NullPointerException - if the argument is null
  - getValue
```
public int getValue()
```
    Get the field type value
    
    Returns:
    
    field type value
  - getBytes
```
public int getBytes()
```
    Get the number of bytes per value
    
    Returns:
    
    number of bytes
  - getBits
```
public int getBits()
```
    Get the number of bits per value
    
    Returns:
    
    number of bits
    
    Since:
    
    2.0.0

public static FieldType getFieldType(int fieldType)
```
    Get the field type
    
    Parameters:
    
    fieldType - field type number
    
    Returns:
    
    field type

    Get the field type of the sample format and bits per sample
    
    Parameters:
    
    sampleFormat - sample format
    
    bitsPerSample - bits per sample
    
    Returns:
