Java Enum return Int

If you need to get the int value, just have a getter for the value in your ENUM:

private enum DownloadType {
    AUDIO(1), VIDEO(2), AUDIO_AND_VIDEO(3);
    private final int value;

    private DownloadType(int value) {
        this.value = value;
    }

    public int getValue() {
        return value;
    }
}

public static void main(String[] args) {
    System.out.println(DownloadType.AUDIO.getValue());           //returns 1
    System.out.println(DownloadType.VIDEO.getValue());           //returns 2
    System.out.println(DownloadType.AUDIO_AND_VIDEO.getValue()); //returns 3
}

Or you could simple use the ordinal() method, which would return the position of the enum constant in the enum.

private enum DownloadType {
    AUDIO(0), VIDEO(1), AUDIO_AND_VIDEO(2);
    //rest of the code
}

System.out.println(DownloadType.AUDIO.ordinal());            //returns 0
System.out.println(DownloadType.VIDEO.ordinal());            //returns 1
System.out.println(DownloadType.AUDIO_AND_VIDEO.ordinal()); //returns 2

Font.PLAIN is not an enum. It is just an int. If you need to take the value out of an enum, you can't avoid calling a method or using a .value, because enums are actually objects of its own type, not primitives.

If you truly only need an int, and you are already to accept that type-safety is lost the user may pass invalid values to your API, you may define those constants as int also:

public final class DownloadType {
    public static final int AUDIO = 0;
    public static final int VIDEO = 1;
    public static final int AUDIO_AND_VIDEO = 2;

    // If you have only static members and want to simulate a static
    // class in Java, then you can make the constructor private.
    private DownloadType() {}
}

By the way, the value field is actually redundant because there is also an .ordinal() method, so you could define the enum as:

enum DownloadType { AUDIO, VIDEO, AUDIO_AND_VIDEO }

and get the "value" using

DownloadType.AUDIO_AND_VIDEO.ordinal()

Edit: Corrected the code.. static class is not allowed in Java. See this SO answer with explanation and details on how to define static classes in Java.
