I have defined an enum and tried to retrieve it as follows
class Demo
{
enum hello
{
one=1,
two
}
public static void Main()
{
Console.WriteLine(hello.one);
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
Now, how do i retrieve the integer value "1" from the enum ?
There's an explicit conversion from any enum type to its underlying type (int in this case). So:
Console.WriteLine((int) hello.one);
Likewise there's an explicit conversion the other way:
Console.WriteLine((hello) 1); // Prints "one"
(As a side note, I'd strongly advise you to follow .NET naming conventions, even when writing tiny test apps.)
you can cast the enums like
int a = (int)hello.one
Well you can do a cast to int
Console.WriteLine((int)hello.one);
Try This.
Console.Writeline((int)hello.Value);
or
int value = Convert.ToInt32(hello.one);
