convert DataRow col value to enum type

[John A Grandy]

To convert DataRow column values to enum types , I am using :


MyEnum myEnumValue = (MyEnum )Enum.Parse( typeof( MyEnum ),
((int)row["MyEnumId"]).ToString() );



Is there an easier way ?

Hi,

Well, function is an option. Enum.ToObject can also reduce a bit, such as

MyEnum myEnumValue = IntoToMyEnum ((int)row["MyEnumId"]));

function MyEnum IntoToMyEnum( int converted )
{
return (MyEnum)Enum.ToObject(typeof (MyEnum ), converted);
}
