string representation of enum values [duplicate]

Answer 1

I've so liked all answers here! During trying them I've found something very short and nice with BOOST_PP_STRINGIZE macro from boost:

//Define the enum you need
typedef enum
{
INTEGER = 0,
STRING  = 1,
BOOLEAN = 2,
}eValueType;

// Then in code use BOOST_PP_STRINGIZE, for example:
char* valueTypeStr = BOOST_PP_STRINGIZE(INTEGER);
