retrieving the XmlEnumAttribut e and the enum-values (2)

[Edward Clements]

This post is a followup to the thread "retrieving the XmlEnumAttribut e values
for an Enum" in this same forum earlier this month, since my last query in
that thread went unanswered.

I have an enum defined (DotNet v2) as
public enum velocityUom
{ [System.Xml.Seri alization.XmlEn umAttribute("m/s")]
ms = 21,

[System.Xml.Seri alization.XmlEn umAttribute("cm/a")]
cma,

...
}

My original post was to ask how I could retrieve the XmlEnumAttribut e values
for this Enum so that I could create a combo box with values like "m/s",
"cm/a", ... so that I don't have to hard-code the XML-enum values in my code.

Oleg Tkachenko answered with the following solution
Type enumType = typeof(velocity Uom);
foreach (FieldInfo fi in enumType.GetFie lds())
{ object[] attrs = fi.GetCustomAtt ributes(typeof( XmlEnumAttribut e),
false);
if (attrs.Length > 0)
{ Console.WriteLi ne(((XmlEnumAtt ribute)attrs[0]).Name);
}
}

My question is, while looping through the FieldInfo to get the string
XMLEnumAttribut es, is it possible to retrieve the corresponding enumerated
(int) value for each string?

Can anyone help?

Thanks,
