- Enum Constant Detail
  - REG_NONE
```
public static final ValueType REG_NONE
```
    No defined value type.
  - REG_SZ
```
public static final ValueType REG_SZ
```
    A string value.
  - REG_EXPAND_SZ
```
public static final ValueType REG_EXPAND_SZ
```
    A string value that contains unexpanded references to environment variables.
  - REG_BINARY
```
public static final ValueType REG_BINARY
```
    Binary data in any form.
  - REG_DWORD
```
public static final ValueType REG_DWORD
```
    A 32-bit number.
  - REG_DWORD_LITTLE_ENDIAN
```
public static final ValueType REG_DWORD_LITTLE_ENDIAN
```
    A 32-bit number in little-endian format. Windows is designed to run on little-endian computer architectures. Therefore, this value is defined as REG_DWORD in the Windows header files.
  - REG_DWORD_BIG_ENDIAN
```
public static final ValueType REG_DWORD_BIG_ENDIAN
```
    A 32-bit number in big-endian format. Some UNIX systems support big-endian architectures.
  - REG_LINK
```
public static final ValueType REG_LINK
```
    A string that contains the target path of a symbolic link that was created by calling the RegCreateKeyEx function with REG_OPTION_CREATE_LINK.
  - REG_MULTI_SZ
```
public static final ValueType REG_MULTI_SZ
```
    An array of string values.
  - REG_RESOURCE_LIST
```
public static final ValueType REG_RESOURCE_LIST
```
    Resource list in the resource map.
  - REG_FULL_RESOURCE_DESCRIPTOR
```
public static final ValueType REG_FULL_RESOURCE_DESCRIPTOR
```
    Resource list in the hardware description.
  - REG_RESOURCE_REQUIREMENTS_LIST
```
public static final ValueType REG_RESOURCE_REQUIREMENTS_LIST
```
  - REG_QWORD
```
public static final ValueType REG_QWORD
```
    A 64-bit number.
  - REG_QWORD_LITTLE_ENDIAN
```
public static final ValueType REG_QWORD_LITTLE_ENDIAN
```
    A 64-bit number in little-endian format. Windows is designed to run on little-endian computer architectures. Therefore, this value is defined as REG_QWORD in the Windows header files.
- Method Detail
  - values
```
public static ValueType[] 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 (ValueType c : ValueType.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
    Returns:
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static ValueType 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()
```
    Retrieves the int representing the value as specified in the Windows API.
    
    Returns:
    The int which describes the value type.
  - getName
```
public String getName()
```
    Used to retrieve the name of the value type.
    
    Returns:
    The name of the value type.
