This is, however, kind of a hack IMHO that relies on the compiler behavior that
isn't well documented.
For example, this:
enum Planet {
case Earth
case Mars
}
"\(Planet.Mars)" // This is "Mars"
Works as well. You don't need to have the represented value to be String.
Note that this:
- works both when you have a plain enum, or enum Planet: Int, or whatever raw
value kind
- does not work (!) when declared as @objc - then the result is "Planet".
