Is there a simple way to convert C++ enum to string?

Question

Suppose we have some named enums:

enum MyEnum {
      FOO,
      BAR = 0x50
};

What I googled for is a script (any language) that scans all

Answer 1

A problem with answer 0 is that the enum binary values do not necessarily start at 0 and are not necessarily contiguous.

When I need this, I usually:

• pull the enum definition into my source
• edit it to get just the names
• do a macro to change the name to the case clause in the question, though typically on one line: case foo: return "foo";
• add the switch, default and other syntax to make it legal
