That works great if the value exists in the enum. It does something weird if the value doesn't though. This is my test.d file: import std.stdio; enum Foo { A = "AV", B = "BV" } void main() { Foo k = cast(Foo)"BV"; // Works and prints correctly k = cast(Foo)"CV"; writeln("Type: ", typeid(k)); // Type: test.Foo writeln("Value: ", k); // Value: cast(Foo)CV } The output shows the type being the Foo enum but the value is 'cast(Foo)CV'. I would of expected an error or exception to be thrown if it wasn't able to cast into an actual enum member. Is this something with how the enums are implemented under the hood?

You can use to! in std.conv: import std.stdio; import std.conv; enum Foo { A = "A", B = "B" } void main() { writeln("A".to!Foo); } This only works because the enum name and the value are the same. Its actually converting on the enum name, which happens to be the same as the value. This doesn't work if the values is different: enum Foo { A = "AV", B = "BV" } int main() { writeln("AV".to!Foo); // Throws exceptions return 0; } It looks like Temtaime's solution works: enum Foo { A = "AV", B = "BV", C = "CV", } Foo K = [ EnumMembers!Foo ].find!(a => a == `BV`)[0]; I can probably make a template or something out of this to make the syntax simpler.
Getting enum from value
I feel like I'm missing something, but there has to be an easier way to convert a value into an enum than switching over every possible value: i.e enum Capitals { Indiana = "Indianapolis", Illinois = "Chicago", Ohio = "Columbus" } Capitals enumFromValue(string s) { switch (s) { case Capitals.Indiana: return Capitals.Indiana; case Capitals.Illinois: return Capitals.Illinois; case Capitals.Ohio: return Capitals.Ohio; default: throw new Exception(format("No Capitals enum member with value %s", s)); } } int main() { Capitals c = enumFromValue("Chicago"); // works // I tried using std.conv, but it matches on the enum member name c = to!Capitals("Chicago") // fails, no member named Chicago } With how redundant the enumFromValue(string) implementation is, I would think there would be an easier way to do it. I'm sure you could use a mixin, a template, or std.traits. I was hoping there was a more 'builtin' way to do it though. Something along the simplicity of: int main() { Capitals c = Capitals("Chicago"); } Any ideas?

Get UDA of unit tests during Runtime.moduleUnitTester
I'd like to print out the name given to a unit test via a UDA, as the tests are being ran by the Runtime.moduleUnitTester. I'm working on writing a custom unit test runner. It would seem that the ModuleInfo.unitTest property is an aggregated function of all the individual unit test blocks in a module, and therefore the UDA value is lost. I've been attempting to use the __traits(getUnitTests, m) function, but that doesn't seem to work with ModuleInfo because it is a variable and not a symbol. Additionally, if you run __traits(getUnitTests, m) against a module, that doesn't retrieve any unit tests that are nested inside classes or structs. So even if it did work with ModuleInfo, there may still be problems. What I would like is to have a module like: ___ module app; int square(int x) { return x*x; } @name("square test 1") unittest { assert(square(10) == 100); } @name("square test 2") unittest { assert(square(5) == 25); } class Foo { void someFunc() { return; } @name("Foo test") unittest { assert(someFunc() == something); } } ___ So as mentioned above, the first problem is that using ModuleInfo.unitTest returns an aggregated function of all 3 unit tests for that module, instead of each one individually, so the UDA information is lost. The second problem is that running __traits(getUnitTests, app) only returns the 2 tests at module scope, and not the one nested inside Foo. Even then, I haven't been able to figure out how to dynamically get the module symbol to pass to __traits inside of the Runtime.moduleUnitTester function. Its possible that I've got some of this backwards and there is an easy solution. Its also possible that what i'm trying to do isn't currently possible. Thanks in advance for any help. --Matt
