Can't find the method values() used for enums.

[Nikolaos Plastiras]

I am trying to find the static values() method that is used to iterate through enums in J2SE 6 documentation but I can't find it.
Is this the correct class?
public abstract class Enum<E extends Enum<E>> extends Object implements Comparable<E>, Serializable

[Emanuel Kadziela]

it's not the Enum class, its the enum keyword, like this:

public enum EmailAddressStatus
{
    VERIFIED,UNVERIFIED
}

....


EmailAddressStatus.values();

The values() method gets generated automatically for all enum classes. You can find it in the specific enum Javadoc page. For example check out TimeUnit.

It does get a mention in the Enum javadoc, but not as a separate method, just as an aside in the description of the valueOf method.
