Enum values in a list

Question

I\'ve a enum class like,

{
   Permanant=1,
   Temporary=2,
}

in my business object I just declare this enum as

<         


        

Answer 1

If you want to get specific enum value from the list user.UserType then you first need to Add enum value to this list:

var user = new User();
//1 value - PERMANENT
user.UserType.Add(USERTYPE.Permanent);

But if you only need to get all the possible values from an arbitrary enum then you can try Enum.GetValues

//2 values - Permanant and Temporary
var enums = Enum.GetValues(typeof(USERTYPE));
