How do I convert an integer to an enumerated type?

Question

I know how to convert an enumerated type to an integer.

type
  TMyType = (mtFirst, mtSecond, mtThird); 

var 
  ordValue:integer;
  enumValue:TMyType;
...
or         


        

Answer 1

You can cast the integer by typecasting it to the enumerated type:

ordValue := Ord(mtSecond);
enumValue := TMyType(ordValue);
