public enum LicenseType
extends Enum<LicenseType>

An annotation of several types of source code licenses which may be specified as the type of a license. The licenses in this enumeration are listed by their common name, and we attach no actual terms to them here.

Note:

• In general it is better to use Unknown than to approximate.
• In the future this enumeration may be extended to include more licenses.
