How to list Enum's members

Question

How to list Enum\'s members in code? I have the following Enum:

Public Enum TestEnum As int32
    First = 0
    Second = 2
    Third = 4
    Fourth = 6
End Enum

I have used George Filippakos answer since I wanted to know how to iterate through Enum values.

I also found out that you can do it using Type.GetEnumValues which has been available since .NET Framework 4.0.

Here's the two ways you can use to iterate through Enum Values:

Module Module1
    Sub Main()
        For Each tstEnum As TestEnum In System.Enum.GetValues(GetType(TestEnum))
            Console.WriteLine($"Name: {tstEnum.ToString}, Value: {CType(tstEnum, Integer)}")
        Next

        Console.WriteLine(Environment.NewLine)

        For Each tstEnum As TestEnum In GetType(TestEnum).GetEnumValues
            Console.WriteLine($"Name: {tstEnum.ToString}, Value: {CType(tstEnum, Integer)}")
        Next

        Console.ReadKey()
    End Sub

    Public Enum TestEnum
        First = 1
        Second = 2
        Third = 3
    End Enum
End Module

---

Output:

Name: First, Value: 1
Name: Second, Value: 2
Name: Third, Value: 3

Name: First, Value: 1
Name: Second, Value: 2
Name: Third, Value: 3
