Return Enum From C# Property getters

Question

How do you return an Enum from a setter/getter function?

Currently I have this:

    public enum LowerCase
    {
        a,
        b,
    }
    public en         


        

Answer 1

You're mixing two enumerations together which is not a good idea since it defeats the purpose of the enum type.

Definitely do not cast to int and do comparisons that way -- you lose the ability to change the order of your enumerated values in future versions.
