C# 'enum' Wackiness C# 'enum' Wackiness [http://cleveralias.blogs.com/thought_spearmints/2004/01/more_c_enum_wac.html]
You can cast between integer and enum. Enums in C# do dual purpose. They are used for the usual enum use, and they're also used for bit fields. When dealing with bit fields, you often want to "AND" a value with the bit field and check if it's true. 		[ Referrals: 1166 ]
