Comparing enum flags in C#

Question

I need to detect if a flag is set within an enum value, which type is marked with the Flag attribute.

Usually it is made like that:

(value & flag) ==         


        

Answer 1

I have used this to compare flags

public static bool IsSet(this T input, T match)
{
    return (Convert.ToUInt32(input) & Convert.ToUInt32(match)) != 0;
}

Here you can do the different conversions. From int to short to long.
