EnumsEnhanced

EnumsEnhanced is a C# source generator for generating common (extension) methods for enums without having the cost of the Reflection API (slow and many allocations).

Following extension methods will be generated for each enum:

Default Equivalent
GetName GetNameFast
GetNames GetNamesFast
GetValues GetValuesFast
HasFlag HasFlagFast, HasFlagUnsafe
IsDefined IsDefinedFast
Parse ParseFast
TryParse TryParseFast
ToString ToStringFast

How to use it

The project that makes use of this package must enable AllowUnsafeBlocks in order to allow compiling the HasFlagUnsafe extension method.

Also it will only generate the extension methods if the enum has no containing type.

internal class EnumContainingTypeTest
{
    // Will not generate any code for this enum.
    public enum ContainingTypeEnum
    {
        Test1
    }
}

The generated class will always have the same naming scheme by using your enum type name with an Enhanced postfix (e.g. YourEnumNameEnhanced) or in this example TestEnumEnhanced.

namespace EnumsEnhancedTest;

[Flags]
internal enum TestEnum
{
    Test1 = 1 << 0,
    Test_1 = 1 << 0,

    Test2 = 1 << 1,
    Test4 = 1 << 2,
    Test5 = 1 << 4,
    Test6 = 1 << 6,
    Test7
}
