I would like to know if it is possible to get attributes of the enum
values and not of the enum
itself? For example, suppose I have the following <
Guys if it helps I will share with you my solution: Definition of Custom attribute:
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Field,AllowMultiple = false)]
public class EnumDisplayName : Attribute
{
public string Name { get; private set; }
public EnumDisplayName(string name)
{
Name = name;
}
}
Now because I needed it inside of HtmlHelper definition of HtmlHelper Extension:
public static class EnumHelper
{
public static string EnumDisplayName(this HtmlHelper helper,EPriceType priceType)
{
//Get every fields from enum
var fields = priceType.GetType().GetFields();
//Foreach field skipping 1`st fieldw which keeps currently sellected value
for (int i = 0; i < fields.Length;i++ )
{
//find field with same int value
if ((int)fields[i].GetValue(priceType) == (int)priceType)
{
//get attributes of found field
var attributes = fields[i].GetCustomAttributes(false);
if (attributes.Length > 0)
{
//return name of found attribute
var retAttr = (EnumDisplayName)attributes[0];
return retAttr.Name;
}
}
}
//throw Error if not found
throw new Exception("Błąd podczas ustalania atrybutów dla typu ceny allegro");
}
}
Hope it helps
