get value from c# enums

Question

I have an enum

public enum ProductionStatus {
    Received = 000,
    Validated = 010,
    PlannedAndConverted = 020,
    InProduction = 030,

Answer 1

var code = (int)ProductionStatus.Validated;

You can also convert an int to an enum value, like this:

var status = (ProductionStatus)10;

bool eq = 010 == 10; they are actually equal

If you would like to use strings , use this method.

    static string EnumToString(ProductionStatus val)
    {
        switch (val)
        {
            case ProductionStatus.Received:
                return "000";
            case ProductionStatus.Validated:
                return "010";
            case ProductionStatus.PlannedAndConverted:
                return "020"; 
            default:
                return "Unknown value";
        }
    }
