Enum Classes in C++
enum classes
Problems with regular enums:
- Two enums cannot have the same name.
enum A { lmao, ass }; enum B { lmao, ass };
- Above example, no variable can have the names
lmaoandass. - Also, two enums of different kinds can be compared (for some reason).
Enum classes
enum class Color { red, blue, green }; Color color = Color::blue;
We can also specify the underlying type, egg char or int.
enum class Color : char { // whatever }
