How do you import an enum into a different namespace in C++?

Question

I have an enum in a namespace and I\'d like to use it as if it were in a different namespace. Intuitively, I figured I could use \'using\' or \'typedef\' to accomplish this,

While i like the approach of Mark B best, because it doesn't break existing code, you can also do the following:

namespace foo {
 enum bar {
  A, B [..]
 };
}

namespace buzz {
 using foo::bar;
 using foo::A;
 using foo::B;
 [..]
}
