```
    Number of bytes per element of this type.
  - lookup
```
private static final Map<Integer,IFDType> lookup
```
- Method Detail
  - values
```
public static IFDType[] 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 (IFDType c : IFDType.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
    Returns:
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static IFDType 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
  - get
```
public static IFDType get(int code)
```
    Retrieves a IFD type by reverse lookup of its "code".
    
    Parameters:
    code - The code to look up.
    
    Returns:
    The IFDType instance for the code or null if it does not exist.
  - getCode
```
public int getCode()
```
    Description copied from interface: CodedEnum
    
    Retrieves the integer "code" for this enumeration. It is expected that the code be unique across the enumerated type.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getCode in interface CodedEnum
    
    Returns:
    See above.
  - getBytesPerElement
```
public int getBytesPerElement()
```
    Retrieves the number of bytes per element.
    
    Returns:
    See above.
