我很清楚这个问题已经被回答了，而且OP已经对接受的答案感到满意。但我发现大多数答案，包括公认的答案，都有点复杂。

我有一个项目给了我这样的情况，我能够以这种方式实现它。

首先，你必须考虑枚举名称的大小写:

public enum AuthenticationMethod
{
    Forms = 1,
    WindowsAuthentication = 2,
    SingleSignOn = 3
}

然后，有这个扩展:

using System.Text.RegularExpression;

public static class AnExtension
{
    public static string Name(this Enum value)
    {
        string strVal = value.ToString();
        try
        {
            return Regex.Replace(strVal, "([a-z])([A-Z])", "$1 $2");
        }
        catch
        {
        }
        return strVal;
    }
}

通过这种方法，您可以将每个枚举名称转换为字符串表示形式，每个单词用空格分隔。例:

AuthenticationMethod am = AuthenticationMethod.WindowsAuthentication;
MessageBox.Show(am.Name());

我真的很喜欢Jakub Šturc的答案，但它的缺点是不能与开关case语句一起使用。下面是他的回答的一个稍微修改的版本，可以与switch语句一起使用:

public sealed class AuthenticationMethod
{
    #region This code never needs to change.
    private readonly string _name;
    public readonly Values Value;

    private AuthenticationMethod(Values value, String name){
        this._name = name;
        this.Value = value;
    }

    public override String ToString(){
        return _name;
    }
    #endregion

    public enum Values
    {
        Forms = 1,
        Windows = 2,
        SSN = 3
    }

    public static readonly AuthenticationMethod FORMS = new AuthenticationMethod (Values.Forms, "FORMS");
    public static readonly AuthenticationMethod WINDOWSAUTHENTICATION = new AuthenticationMethod (Values.Windows, "WINDOWS");
    public static readonly AuthenticationMethod SINGLESIGNON = new AuthenticationMethod (Values.SSN, "SSN");
}

所以你得到了Jakub Šturc的答案的所有好处，另外我们可以像这样使用switch语句:

var authenticationMethodVariable = AuthenticationMethod.FORMS;  // Set the "enum" value we want to use.
var methodName = authenticationMethodVariable.ToString();       // Get the user-friendly "name" of the "enum" value.

// Perform logic based on which "enum" value was chosen.
switch (authenticationMethodVariable.Value)
{
    case authenticationMethodVariable.Values.Forms: // Do something
        break;
    case authenticationMethodVariable.Values.Windows: // Do something
        break;
    case authenticationMethodVariable.Values.SSN: // Do something
        break;      
}

试试type-safe-enum模式。

public sealed class AuthenticationMethod {

    private readonly String name;
    private readonly int value;

    public static readonly AuthenticationMethod FORMS = new AuthenticationMethod (1, "FORMS");
    public static readonly AuthenticationMethod WINDOWSAUTHENTICATION = new AuthenticationMethod (2, "WINDOWS");
    public static readonly AuthenticationMethod SINGLESIGNON = new AuthenticationMethod (3, "SSN");        

    private AuthenticationMethod(int value, String name){
        this.name = name;
        this.value = value;
    }

    public override String ToString(){
        return name;
    }

}

更新 显式(或隐式)类型转换可以通过

adding static field with mapping private static readonly Dictionary<string, AuthenticationMethod> instance = new Dictionary<string,AuthenticationMethod>(); n.b. In order that the initialisation of the the "enum member" fields doesn't throw a NullReferenceException when calling the instance constructor, be sure to put the Dictionary field before the "enum member" fields in your class. This is because static field initialisers are called in declaration order, and before the static constructor, creating the weird and necessary but confusing situation that the instance constructor can be called before all static fields have been initialised, and before the static constructor is called. filling this mapping in instance constructor instance[name] = this; and adding user-defined type conversion operator public static explicit operator AuthenticationMethod(string str) { AuthenticationMethod result; if (instance.TryGetValue(str, out result)) return result; else throw new InvalidCastException(); }

如果我理解正确，你可以简单地使用.ToString()从值中检索enum的名称(假设它已经被转换为enum); 如果你有裸整型(比如从数据库或其他地方)，你可以先将它强制转换为枚举。 下面的两个方法都将获得枚举名称。

AuthenticationMethod myCurrentSetting = AuthenticationMethod.FORMS;
Console.WriteLine(myCurrentSetting); // Prints: FORMS
string name = Enum.GetNames(typeof(AuthenticationMethod))[(int)myCurrentSetting-1];
Console.WriteLine(name); // Prints: FORMS

但是请记住，第二种技术假设您使用的是int型，并且您的索引基于1(而不是基于0)。相比之下，GetNames函数也相当繁重，每次调用它都要生成一个完整的数组。 正如您在第一种技术中看到的，. tostring()实际上是隐式调用的。 这两个问题都已经在答案中提到了，当然，我只是想澄清它们之间的区别。

我支持Harvey，但不用const。我可以混合匹配字符串，int，等等。

public class xlsLayout
{
    public int xlHeaderRow = 1;
    public int xlFirstDataRow = 2;
    public int xlSkipLinesBetweenFiles = 1; //so 0 would mean don't skip
    public string xlFileColumn = "A";
    public string xlFieldColumn = "B";
    public string xlFreindlyNameColumn = "C";
    public string xlHelpTextColumn = "D";
}

然后……

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    xlsLayout xlLayout = new xlsLayout();

    xl.SetCell(xlLayout.xlFileColumn, xlLayout.xlHeaderRow, "File Name");
    xl.SetCell(xlLayout.xlFieldColumn, xlLayout.xlHeaderRow, "Code field name");
    xl.SetCell(xlLayout.xlFreindlyNameColumn, xlLayout.xlHeaderRow, "Freindly name");
    xl.SetCell(xlLayout.xlHelpTextColumn, xlLayout.xlHeaderRow, "Inline Help Text");
}

我发现的Enums国际化或从各自的资源文件获取Enums文本的方法是通过继承DescriptionAttribute类创建一个属性类

public class EnumResourceAttribute : DescriptionAttribute
{

    public Type ResourceType { get; private set; }
    public string ResourceName { get; private set; }
    public int SortOrder { get; private set; }
    public EnumResourceAttribute(Type ResourceType,
                         string ResourceName,
                         int SortOrder)
    {

        this.ResourceType = ResourceType;
        this.ResourceName = ResourceName;
        this.SortOrder = SortOrder;
    }
}

创建另一个Static类，为GetString和GetString提供扩展方法。

public static class EnumHelper
{
    public static string GetString(this Enum value)
    {
        EnumResourceAttribute ea =
       (EnumResourceAttribute)value.GetType().GetField(value.ToString())
        .GetCustomAttributes(typeof(EnumResourceAttribute), false)
         .FirstOrDefault();
        if (ea != null)
        {
            PropertyInfo pi = ea.ResourceType
             .GetProperty(CommonConstants.ResourceManager);
            if (pi != null)
            {
                ResourceManager rm = (ResourceManager)pi
                .GetValue(null, null);
                return rm.GetString(ea.ResourceName);
            }

        }
        return string.Empty;
    }


    public static IList GetStrings(this Type enumType)
    {
        List<string> stringList = new List<string>();
        FieldInfo[] fiArray = enumType.GetFields();
        foreach (FieldInfo fi in fiArray)
        {
            EnumResourceAttribute ea =
                (EnumResourceAttribute)fi
                     .GetCustomAttributes(typeof(EnumResourceAttribute), false)
                     .FirstOrDefault();
            if (ea != null)
            {
                PropertyInfo pi = ea.ResourceType
                                    .GetProperty(CommonConstants.ResourceManager);
                if (pi != null)
                {
                    ResourceManager rm = (ResourceManager)pi
                                          .GetValue(null, null);
                    stringList.Add(rm.GetString(ea.ResourceName));
                }
            }
        }
        return stringList.ToList();
    }
}

在Enum的元素上，你可以这样写:

public enum Priority
{
     [EnumResourceAttribute(typeof(Resources.AdviceModule), Resources.ResourceNames.AdviceCreateAdviceExternaPriorityMemberHigh, 1)]
    High,
     [EnumResourceAttribute(typeof(Resources.AdviceModule), Resources.ResourceNames.AdviceCreateAdviceExternaPriorityMemberRoutine, 2)]
    Routine
}

Where Resources.ResourceNames.AdviceCreateAdviceExternaPriorityMemberHigh & resources . resourcename . advicecreateadviceexternaprioritymemberroutine是资源文件中的常量，或者你可以说字符串，其值可以在不同的文化中可用。

如果你在MVC架构中实现你的web应用程序，那么创建一个属性

private IList result;
public IList Result
{
    get
    {
        result = typeof(Priority).GetStrings();
        return result;
    }
}

在你的.cshtml文件中，你可以像这样将枚举绑定到你的下拉列表:

@Html.DropDownListFor(model => Model.vwClinicalInfo.Priority, new SelectList(Model.Result))
