Question by ThePokedog1 · Aug 24, 2015 at 11:48 AM · c#stringenum

Using enum as a string with an if statement

I don't have the code on me so I might of typed something weird but heres an example.

 public SpecialPeople sPep;
 public Text blahText;
 public enum SpecialPeople 
 {
      Bob,
      Mario,
      Dude,
      Ect.....
 }
 
 void Update ()
 {
     If (blahText.text == sPep.ToString())
     {
           //SomethingHappens
     }
 
 }
 

Whats happening is when I do the ToString () it only works for the first one on the enum list. Now I could go through and do SpecialPeople. And then the name but if I have a lot of names on the list then I have to add each and everyone of the names. That would be harder not smarter. Let me know if you know any alternate things I could do to accomplish this task. Thanks in advance!

Haven't got an answer back for this so I guess I'll just do it the long way by :

If (blahText.text ==SpecialPeople.Bob) If (blahText.text ==SpecialPeople.Mario) If (blahText.text ==SpecialPeople.Dude) If (blahText.text ==SpecialPeople.Ect)

If you find an answer to my original question let me know cause I would like to know for the future.
