I\'ve got an enum like this:
public enum MyLovelyEnum
{
FirstSelection,
TheOtherSelection,
YetAnotherOne
};
I got a property in
Based on the EnumToBooleanConverter from Scott. I noticed that the ConvertBack method doesn't work on the Enum with flags code.
I've tried the following code:
public class EnumHasFlagToBooleanConverter : IValueConverter
{
private object _obj;
public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
{
_obj = value;
return ((Enum)value).HasFlag((Enum)parameter);
}
public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
{
if (value.Equals(true))
{
if (((Enum)_obj).HasFlag((Enum)parameter))
{
// Do nothing
return Binding.DoNothing;
}
else
{
int i = (int)_obj;
int ii = (int)parameter;
int newInt = i+ii;
return (NavigationProjectDates)newInt;
}
}
else
{
if (((Enum)_obj).HasFlag((Enum)parameter))
{
int i = (int)_obj;
int ii = (int)parameter;
int newInt = i-ii;
return (NavigationProjectDates)newInt;
}
else
{
// do nothing
return Binding.DoNothing;
}
}
}
}
The only thing that I can't get to work is to do a cast from int to targetType so I made it hardcoded to NavigationProjectDates, the enum that I use. And, targetType == NavigationProjectDates...
Edit for more generic Flags Enum converter:
public class FlagsEnumToBooleanConverter : IValueConverter {
private int _flags=0;
public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, string language) {
if (value == null) return false;
_flags = (int) value;
Type t = value.GetType();
object o = Enum.ToObject(t, parameter);
return ((Enum)value).HasFlag((Enum)o);
}
public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, string language)
{
if (value?.Equals(true) ?? false) {
_flags = _flags | (int) parameter;
}
else {
_flags = _flags & ~(int) parameter;
}
return _flags;
}
}
