不要使用枚举，使用静态类。

取代

private enum PublishStatuses{
    NotCompleted,
    Completed,
    Error
};

with

private static class PublishStatuses{
    public static readonly string NotCompleted = "Not Completed";
    public static readonly string Completed = "Completed";
    public static readonly string Error = "Error";
};

它是这样使用的

PublishStatuses.NotCompleted; // "Not Completed"

使用顶级“扩展方法”解决方案的问题:

私有枚举通常在另一个类中使用。扩展方法解决方案在那里无效，因为它必须在它自己的类中。这个解决方案可以是私有的，并嵌入到另一个类中。

我创建了一个反向扩展方法来将描述转换回enum值:

public static T ToEnumValue<T>(this string enumerationDescription) where T : struct
{
    var type = typeof(T);

    if (!type.IsEnum)
        throw new ArgumentException("ToEnumValue<T>(): Must be of enum type", "T");

    foreach (object val in System.Enum.GetValues(type))
        if (val.GetDescription<T>() == enumerationDescription)
            return (T)val;

    throw new ArgumentException("ToEnumValue<T>(): Invalid description for enum " + type.Name, "enumerationDescription");
}

我用扩展方法做到这一点:

public enum ErrorLevel
{
  None,
  Low,
  High,
  SoylentGreen
}

public static class ErrorLevelExtensions
{
  public static string ToFriendlyString(this ErrorLevel me)
  {
    switch(me)
    {
      case ErrorLevel.None:
        return "Everything is OK";
      case ErrorLevel.Low:
        return "SNAFU, if you know what I mean.";
      case ErrorLevel.High:
        return "Reaching TARFU levels";
      case ErrorLevel.SoylentGreen:
        return "ITS PEOPLE!!!!";
      default:
        return "Get your damn dirty hands off me you FILTHY APE!";
    }
  }
}

根据本文档:https://learn.microsoft.com/pt-br/dotnet/api/system.enum.tostring?view=netframework-4.8

可以使用如下格式将枚举数转换为字符串:

public enum Example
{
    Example1,
    Example2
}

Console.WriteLine(Example.Example1.ToString("g"));

//Outputs: "Example1"

你可以在这个链接中看到所有可能的格式:https://learn.microsoft.com/pt-br/dotnet/api/system.string?view=netframework-4.8

使用枚举。GetName

从上面的链接…

using System;

public class GetNameTest {
    enum Colors { Red, Green, Blue, Yellow };
    enum Styles { Plaid, Striped, Tartan, Corduroy };

    public static void Main() {

        Console.WriteLine("The 4th value of the Colors Enum is {0}", Enum.GetName(typeof(Colors), 3));
        Console.WriteLine("The 4th value of the Styles Enum is {0}", Enum.GetName(typeof(Styles), 3));
    }
}
// The example displays the following output:
//       The 4th value of the Colors Enum is Yellow
//       The 4th value of the Styles Enum is Corduroy

只需要使用一个静态类来模拟枚举:

public static class PublishStatusses{
   public const string NotCompleted = "Not Completed";
   public const string Completed = "Completed";
   public const string Error = "Error"
};

要访问这些值，只需要像枚举一样使用:

PublishStatusses.NotCompleted;
