allowableValues

public abstract String allowableValues

Limits the acceptable values for this parameter.

There are three ways to describe the allowable values:

1. To set a list of values, provide a comma-separated list. For example: first, second, third.
2. To set a range of values, start the value with "range", and surrounding by square brackets include the minimum and maximum values, or round brackets for exclusive minimum and maximum values. For example: range[1, 5], range(1, 5), range[1, 5).
3. To set a minimum/maximum value, use the same format for range but use "infinity" or "-infinity" as the second value. For example, range[1, infinity] means the minimum allowable value of this parameter is 1.
