FastEnum.Extensions.Generator

Source Generator for enums to create extension methods with basic functionality.

Usage

Use the [Extensions] on your enums, so it will generate the extensions for those enums:

Feature

MembersCount (field)
GetValues
GetUnderlyingValues
GetNames
HasFlag
IsDefined
FastToString
FastToString with format option
GetDescription
TryParse (string/System.ReadOnlySpan<char>)
TryParseIgnoreCase (string/System.ReadOnlySpan<char>)

Note: I'm trying to make the generated code behave the same as the .NET implementation. If you find any differences, please let me know.

Limitations

Only currently supported .NET versions are supported. See: supported version list
.NET Framework is not supported
Generation extensions for enums nested in classes with generic type parameters are not supported.
Generation extensions for enums nested in multiple classes is not supported.

Example

using FastEnum;

namespace ToStringExample;

public class NestingClass
{
    [Extensions]
    public enum NestedInClassEnum
    {
        None
    }
}

[Extensions, Flags]
public enum Color
{
    [Description("Crimson Red")]
    Red = 0x990000,
    [Display(Name = "Pine", Description = "Pine")]
    Green = 0x166138,
    [EnumMember(Value = "Sky")]
    Blue = 0x87CEEB
}
