RE: [development-axapta] Re: How to access enum values in loop

[Preston A. Larimer]

enum2String(<Enum>)  Returns the string value of the enum  so enum2String(noYes::No) returns ‘No’

I use the these two methods for getting element names and values form an enum value or index.

static str enumValueString(str _Enum, anyType _enumValue)
{
   DictEnum dictEnum;
   ;
   dictEnum = new DictEnum(xutilelements::getNode(
       xutilelements::find(utilelementtype::Enum,_Enum)).applObjectId());
   return dictEnum.index2Name(_enumValue);
} 

static str enumName(str _Enum, anyType _enumValue)
{
   DictEnum dictEnum;
   ;
   dictEnum = new DictEnum(xutilelements::getNode(
       xutilelements::find(utilelementtype::Enum,_Enum)).applObjectId());
   return dictEnum.index2Symbol(_enumValue);
}
examples 
enum2String((valueCriteria::Max)                       returns   Maximum
enumName('valueCriteria', valueCriteria::Max)     returns   Max 
enumName('valueCriteria', 1)                             returns   Max
enumValue('valueCriteria', valueCriteria::Max)     returns   Maximum
enumValueString('valueCriteria', 1)                     returns   Maximum

Hope they help

Hi Harry,

Thanks for giving me time and trying out things for me ....
You tried to insert value in a enum field ABC. 
But I was trying the reverse way.....
I wanted to insert enum value to string field and not reverse way.....
At last what i did is, i put all values to container, then used 
conpeek function in loop to get values from the container & then 
inserted that value by converting to string.....
Do u have any way to insert enum value to string field ???

Thanks,
Prabodh Kelkar

hi Prabodh!

Confused.

I tried on my machine. Tried to insert value in a enum field ABC. 
When i = 0
at the time of inserting the table browser shows the value of 
ABC::None,
when i was 1 table browser shows the value of ABC::A and so on.

Are u trying something different?

regards

harry deshpande

Hi,

I tried following code
>int i = 0;

>  {
>        ABCTable.columnname = i;
>        ABCTable.insert();
>        i++
>  }
But if u assign "i" to ABCTable.columnname, then, in the table the
value of "i" at that particular time is saved, and not the value of
element at i'th position in the enum.
Can we do that???
Thanks,
Prabodh
