I have a .cs file which is linked to several other projects. All my classes
in this file are defined as internal. I would like to have an enum defined
as well in the namespace but I get an error from one project that the
accessibility of the enum is less (public) than that of a method which
returns that's type.
What is the best way to define this enum without getting duplicate define
warnings or this error of less accessibility?
Thanks,

So how exactly is the enum defined and are you trying to use it across
different projects and\or namespaces?

It compiles fine but I get a warning about enum whatever being defined in 2

If I understand correctly, you have 2 projects, and a common c# file that
you have included in both projects. This might compile OK, but at runtime I
can see there being a conflict, since both assemblies contain a definition
for "Something.What ever". Even more problems could result if you had the
enum declared as internal, since internal essentially means "public, but
only inside this assembly".
Instead of including the c# file in both projects, create a 3rd shared
library projcet (say, common.dll) , and add a reference to that in the other
two projects, or more projects if need be. Your common enum - and any other
common classes - would go in there. That way, Project A and Project B would
be referencing the same definition for "Something.What ever".
Hope that makes sense!

Hi Joe,
Does Derrick's reply make sense to you? To use a shared library dll, we
have to expose the classes in the assembly as public, not internal, or the
outside assembly can not use it. If you have any concern, please feel free
to feedback. Thanks

Thanks Derrick. I don't know why I didn't create a separate library to begin

So I was needing some extra power from my enums and implemented the
typesafe enum pattern.
And it got me to thinking... why should I EVER use standard enums?
There's now a nice little code snippet that I wrote today that gives me
an instant implementation of the pattern. I could easily just always
use such an implementation instead of a standard enum, so I wanted to
know what you experts all thought.
Is there a case for standard enums?
