How to apply InterLocked.Exchange for Enum Types in C#?

Question

public enum MyEnum{Value1, Value2}  
class MyClass 
{ 
    private MyEnum _field;   
    public MyEnum Field  // added for convenience
    {
        get { return _field;         


        

Answer 1

You appear to not need the "exchange" feature of Interlocked.Exchange, as you are ignoring its return value. Therefore I think the solution that might make you happiest is to mark _field as volatile:

private volatile MyEnum _field;
