Cimballi commented on LANG-1136:
--------------------------------
Your example is with days, there could a lot of other examples or situations
where such a method is useful.
Right now I am using my own method but I already faced the case a few times and
so I thought it could be useful to add it to a library like commons-lang.
Now I let you decide if it's worth adding it or not...

> Add a method in EnumUtils to 'translate' an enum value.
> Example :
> Enum1
> Enum2
> Object.enum2
> Enum1 getEnum(Enum1.class, Object.enum2);
> If enum2 is null, returns 2, else returns the Enum1 with the same name as
> Object.enum2, throws exception if no such Enum1.
