I'm trying to define an enum which will be used from unmanaged c++, C++/CLI
managed c++ and from C#.
I defined the following enum in a VS dll project set to be compiled with the
/clr switch:
public enum Days
{
Sunday
};
After building the project, I added the created DLL as a reference in a C#
project.
Trying to use this enum from inside the C# project, Days itself was visible
but none of its fields (Sunday) existed (Days was empty).
For verification, I right clicked on the DLL reference and selected "View in
Object Browser". Again, "Days" existed but was empty - Sunday simply wasn't
there.
I tried creating an enum class in the CLI managed c++ project:
public enum class Days
{
Sunday
};
And both the enum itself and its fields were visible and usable from C#.
However this cannot be my solution because the "enum class" cannot be used
from unmanaged c++.
The enum class reference on MSDN
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...49(VS.80).aspx) states:
"A named, standard enum compiled with /clr will be visible in the assembly
as a managed enum, and can be consumed by any other managed compiler."
How can I make Sunday accessible from C#?
Thanks in advance.
