Title: How to get names of enumerated values
// For example, if you have some enum type
{....}
type
TYourEnumType = (One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten);
{....}
{
And you want in run-time to get a string with same value for each of
them (for example, fill the Listbox items with enum values), then you
can use the next procedure:
}
{
Und Sie m?chten zur Laufzeit nun Items einer Listbox mit den String-
Namen der Aufz?hlung f¨¹llen.
}
uses TypInfo;
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
i: Integer;
begin
for i := Ord(Low(TYourEnumType)) to Ord(High(TYourEnumType)) do
ListBox1.Items.Add(GetEnumName(TypeInfo(TYourEnumType), i));
end;
