如果你想在null或空时使用默认值(例如，当从配置文件检索时，该值不存在)，并在字符串或数字不匹配任何enum值时抛出异常。不过要注意提莫的回答(https://stackoverflow.com/a/34267134/2454604)。

    public static T ParseEnum<T>(this string s, T defaultValue, bool ignoreCase = false) 
        where T : struct, IComparable, IConvertible, IFormattable//If C# >=7.3: struct, System.Enum 
    {
        if ((s?.Length ?? 0) == 0)
        {
            return defaultValue;
        }

        var valid = Enum.TryParse<T>(s, ignoreCase, out T res);

        if (!valid || !Enum.IsDefined(typeof(T), res))
        {
            throw new InvalidOperationException(
                $"'{s}' is not a valid value of enum '{typeof(T).FullName}'!");
        }
        return res;
    }

注意，enuml . parse()的性能并不理想，因为它是通过反射实现的。(枚举. tostring()也是如此，它是反过来的。)

如果你需要在性能敏感的代码中将字符串转换为枚举，最好的方法是在启动时创建Dictionary<String,YourEnum>，并使用它来进行转换。

对于性能，这可能会有所帮助:

    private static Dictionary<Type, Dictionary<string, object>> dicEnum = new Dictionary<Type, Dictionary<string, object>>();
    public static T ToEnum<T>(this string value, T defaultValue)
    {
        var t = typeof(T);
        Dictionary<string, object> dic;
        if (!dicEnum.ContainsKey(t))
        {
            dic = new Dictionary<string, object>();
            dicEnum.Add(t, dic);
            foreach (var en in Enum.GetValues(t))
                dic.Add(en.ToString(), en);
        }
        else
            dic = dicEnum[t];
        if (!dic.ContainsKey(value))
            return defaultValue;
        else
            return (T)dic[value];
    }

我喜欢扩展方法的解决方案。

namespace System
{
    public static class StringExtensions
    {

        public static bool TryParseAsEnum<T>(this string value, out T output) where T : struct
        {
            T result;

            var isEnum = Enum.TryParse(value, out result);

            output = isEnum ? result : default(T);

            return isEnum;
        }
    }
}

下面是我的测试实现。

using static Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting.Assert;
using static System.Console;

private enum Countries
    {
        NorthAmerica,
        Europe,
        Rusia,
        Brasil,
        China,
        Asia,
        Australia
    }

   [TestMethod]
        public void StringExtensions_On_TryParseAsEnum()
        {
            var countryName = "Rusia";

            Countries country;
            var isCountry = countryName.TryParseAsEnum(out country);

            WriteLine(country);

            IsTrue(isCountry);
            AreEqual(Countries.Rusia, country);

            countryName = "Don't exist";

            isCountry = countryName.TryParseAsEnum(out country);

            WriteLine(country);

            IsFalse(isCountry);
            AreEqual(Countries.NorthAmerica, country); // the 1rst one in the enumeration
        }

        <Extension()>
    Public Function ToEnum(Of TEnum)(ByVal value As String, ByVal defaultValue As TEnum) As TEnum
        If String.IsNullOrEmpty(value) Then
            Return defaultValue
        End If

        Return [Enum].Parse(GetType(TEnum), value, True)
    End Function

// str.ToEnum<EnumType>()
T static ToEnum<T>(this string str) 
{ 
    return (T) Enum.Parse(typeof(T), str);
}
