Problem Scenario:

There is an enum keeping track of operations to be performed on a table

Public Enum PartitionKey {
Createtask,
Updatetask,
Deletetask
}

User is entering the value for the operation to be performed and the code to check the value entered in switch case.

Switch (value)
{ 
         case PartitionKey.Createtask.ToString():
         {
         Create();
         break;
         }
         case PartitionKey.Updatetask.ToString():
         { 
         Update(); 
         break;
         }
         case PartitionKey.Deletetask.ToString():
         { 
         Delete();
         break;
         }
}
and it displays as error as “.”

Solution: One of the possible implmentation is as below.

Public Enum PartitionKey: byte {
Createtask,
Updatetask,
Deletetask
}
Switch ((PartitionKey)(Int32.Parse(value)))
{
         case PartitionKey.Createtask:
         {
                  Create();
                  break;
         }
         case PartitionKey.Updatetask:
         { 
                  Update();
                  break;
         }
         case PartitionKey.Deletetask:
         { 
                  Delete();
                  break;
         }
         default:
         {
                  break;
         }
}
