Please, how can I create Delphi like sets in Java?

In Delphi I could define set:

TAnimal = (aDog, aCat, aHorse, aSheep);
TAnimals = set of TAnimal;

And then for example:

Animals := [aDog, aCat];
if aDog in Animals then ...

Can I do sometling similar in Java? How?

Thank you a lot! Vojta

I don't know Delphi, and you didn't provide enough examples to guess at
the semantics, but you could probably do what you intend with either Java
1.5's enum, or the Set interface.
