C# cast string to enum with enum attribute
- by rubentjeuh
Hello, i've got the following question:
I've got
public enum Als
{
[StringValue("Beantwoord")] Beantwoord = 0,
[StringValue("Niet beantwoord")] NietBeantwoord = 1,
[StringValue("Geselecteerd")] Geselecteerd = 2,
[StringValue("Niet geselecteerd")] NietGeselecteerd = 3,
}
with
public class StringValueAttribute : System.Attribute
{
private string _value;
public StringValueAttribute(string value)
{
_value = value;
}
public string Value
{
get { return _value; }
}
}
And i would like to put the value from the item I selected of a combobox into a int:
int i = ((int)(Als)Enum.Parse(typeof(Als), (string)cboAls.SelectedValue)); //<- WRONG
Is this possible, and if so, how? (the stringvalue matches the value selected from the combobox)
Thanks
