public class DataType
{
    private readonly string value;
    private static readonly Dictionary<string, DataType> predefinedValues;

    public static readonly DataType Json = new DataType("json");
    public static readonly DataType Xml = new DataType("xml");
    public static readonly DataType Text = new DataType("text");
    public static readonly DataType Html = new DataType("html");
    public static readonly DataType Binary = new DataType("binary");

    static DataType()
    {
        predefinedValues = new Dictionary<string, DataType>();
        predefinedValues.Add(Json.Value, Json);
        predefinedValues.Add(Xml.Value, Xml);
        predefinedValues.Add(Text.Value, Text);
        predefinedValues.Add(Html.Value, Html);
        predefinedValues.Add(Binary.Value, Binary);
    }

    private DataType(string value)
    {
        this.value = value;
    }

    public static DataType Parse(string value)
    {
        var exception = new FormatException($"Invalid value for type {nameof(DataType)}");
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(value))
            throw exception;

        string key = value.ToLower();
        if (!predefinedValues.ContainsKey(key))
            throw exception;

        return predefinedValues[key];
    }

    public string Value
    {
        get { return value; }
    }
}

你也可以使用扩展模型:

public enum MyEnum
{
    [Description("String 1")]
    V1= 1,
    [Description("String 2")]
    V2= 2
} 

你的扩展类

public static class MyEnumExtensions
{
    public static string ToDescriptionString(this MyEnum val)
    {
        DescriptionAttribute[] attributes = (DescriptionAttribute[])val
           .GetType()
           .GetField(val.ToString())
           .GetCustomAttributes(typeof(DescriptionAttribute), false);
        return attributes.Length > 0 ? attributes[0].Description : string.Empty;
    }
} 

用法:

MyEnum myLocal = MyEnum.V1;
print(myLocal.ToDescriptionString());

使用带有常量的静态类如何?

static class GroupTypes
{
  public const string TheGroup = "OEM";
  public const string TheOtherGroup = "CMB";
}

void DoSomething(string groupType)
{
  if(groupType == GroupTypes.TheGroup)
  {
    // Be nice
  }  
  else if (groupType == GroupTypes.TheOtherGroup)
  {
    // Continue to be nice
  }
  else
  {
    // unexpected, throw exception?
  }
}

我基本上是在寻找@ArthurC的反思答案

稍微扩展一下他的回答，你可以通过一个泛型函数来让它更好:

    // If you want for a specific Enum
    private static string EnumStringValue(GroupTypes e)
    {
        return EnumStringValue<GroupTypes>(e);
    }

    // Generic
    private static string EnumStringValue<T>(T enumInstance)
    {
        return Enum.GetName(typeof(T), enumInstance);
    } 

然后你就可以把你有的东西都包起来了

EnumStringValue(GroupTypes.TheGroup) // if you incorporate the top part

or

EnumStringValue<GroupTypes>(GroupTypes.TheGroup) // if you just use the generic

我做过类似的事情;

public enum BusinessUnits
{
    NEW_EQUIPMENT = 0,
    USED_EQUIPMENT = 1,
    RENTAL_EQUIPMENT = 2,
    PARTS = 3,
    SERVICE = 4,
    OPERATOR_TRAINING = 5
}

public class BusinessUnitService
{
    public static string StringBusinessUnits(BusinessUnits BU)
    {
        switch (BU)
        {
            case BusinessUnits.NEW_EQUIPMENT: return "NEW EQUIPMENT";
            case BusinessUnits.USED_EQUIPMENT: return "USED EQUIPMENT";
            case BusinessUnits.RENTAL_EQUIPMENT: return "RENTAL EQUIPMENT";
            case BusinessUnits.PARTS: return "PARTS";
            case BusinessUnits.SERVICE: return "SERVICE";
            case BusinessUnits.OPERATOR_TRAINING: return "OPERATOR TRAINING";
            default: return String.Empty;
        }
    }
}

用这个称呼它;

BusinessUnitService.StringBusinessUnits(BusinessUnits.PARTS)

基于https://stackoverflow.com/a/1343517/1818723，我提出了一个枚举与TryParse方法

public class FancyStringEnum
{
    private FancyStringEnum(string value) { Value = value; }

    public string Value { get; private set; }

    private static List<FancyStringEnum> choices = new List<FancyStringEnum>
    {
        new FancyStringEnum("Small") ,
        new FancyStringEnum("Big Thing") ,
        new FancyStringEnum("Value with Spaces")
    };

    public static FancyStringEnum Small { get { return choices[0]; } }
    public static FancyStringEnum BigThing { get { return choices[1]; } }
    public static FancyStringEnum ValueWithSpaces { get { return choices[2]; } }

    public override string ToString()
    {
        return Value;
    }

    public static bool TryParse(string value, bool ignoreCase, out FancyStringEnum result)
    {
        var sc = StringComparison.InvariantCulture;
        if (ignoreCase)
            sc = StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase;

        foreach (var choice in choices)
        {

            if (choice.Value.Equals(value, sc))
            {
                result = choice;
                return true;
            }
        }

        result = new FancyStringEnum(null);
        return false;
    }

    public static FancyStringEnum Parse(string value, bool ignoreCase)
    {
        var sc = StringComparison.InvariantCulture;
        if (ignoreCase)
            sc = StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase;

        foreach (var choice in choices)
        {

            if (choice.Value.Equals(value, sc))
            {
                return choice;
            }
        }

        return new FancyStringEnum(null);
    }
}

传入类型安全的字符串值作为参数:

public static void Do(string message, FancyStringEnum value)
{
    if (value == FancyStringEnum.Small)
    {
        //do something
    } else if (value == FancyStringEnum.BigThing)
    {
        //do something else
    }
}

TryParse和Parse在行动:

string something = "something"; //substiture with "small" to see it parsed 
if (FancyStringEnum.TryParse(something, true, out var se))
    Console.WriteLine(se.Value);
else
    Console.WriteLine($"unable to parse {something}");

//or    

var v2 = FancyStringEnum.Parse(something, true);
if (v2.Value == null)
    Console.WriteLine($"unable to parse {something}");
else
    Console.WriteLine(v2.Value); //do something with parsed enum

    

是否可以提取基类，用更少的代码创建StringEnums
