## Enum DSOperationType

- java.lang.Object
- - java.lang.Enum<DSOperationType>
  - - com.smartgwt.client.types.DSOperationType

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    ValueEnum, java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<DSOperationType>

      public enum DSOperationType
      extends java.lang.Enum<DSOperationType>
      implements ValueEnum

  One of the four basic operations that can be performed on DataSource data: "fetch", "add", "update", "remove". Elsewhere called CRUD operations, where CRUD stands for "create", "retrieve", "update", "delete", which correspond to "add", "fetch", "update" and "remove" in Smart GWT terminology. See `DataSourceOperations` for a full description.

  There are also additional, non-CRUD operations explained below.
