Using T4 to generate enums from database lookup tablesDatabase lookup 
tables are often used to store predefined values that can be referenced by 
other tables. For example, a table called Country might store the names and 
codes of all the countries in the world, and a table called Customer might 
have a column called CountryId that references the Country table.

In some cases, it might be useful to have an enum type in C# that 
corresponds to the values in a lookup table. This can make the code more 
readable and type-safe, as well as enable features like switch statements 
and intellisense. However, manually creating and maintaining such enums can 
be tedious and error-prone, especially if the lookup table changes 
frequently.
A better solution is to use T4 templates to automatically generate enums 
from database lookup tables. T4 (Text Template Transformation Toolkit) is a 
powerful tool that allows you to write code that generates code. You can 
use T4 to access the database schema and generate enums based on the values 
in the lookup tables.
In this article, we will show you how to use T4 to generate enums from 
database lookup tables in a few simple steps.
