Returning an enum from a function in C?

Question

If I have something like the following in a header file, how do I declare a function that returns an enum of type Foo?

enum Foo
{
   BAR,
   BAZ
};
         


        

Answer 1

enum Foo
{
   BAR,
   BAZ
};

In C, the return type should have enum before it. And when you use the individual enum values, you don't qualify them in any way.

enum Foo testFunc()
{
    enum Foo temp = BAR;
    temp = BAZ;
    return temp;
}
