Getting Enum value for display method x++

Posted on by YCeren

I wrote a display method for an extension table. ServiceSubStatus is an enum field so 0,1,2 are displaying but I need to display the value of the enum.

Can you please help me with this?

   [ExtensionOf(tableStr(EntAssetObjectTable))]
public final class ObjectTable_Extension
{
    public display ServiceSubStatus ServiceSubStatus()
    {    


        return (ServiceStatus::findByRecId(this.ServiceStatus).ServiceSubStatus);

    
    }

}

public display str ServiceSubStatus() { SysDictEnum dictEnum = new SysDictEnum(enumNum(ServiceSubStatusEnum)); ServiceStatus serviceStatus = ServiceStatus::findByRecId(this.ServiceStatus); if(serviceStatus) { return dictEnum.value2Label(serviceStatus.ServiceSubStatus); }

I coded this way and it worked but thank you so much for your answer

[ExtensionOf(tableStr(EntAssetObjectTable))] public final class ObjectTable_Extension { public display str ServiceSubStatus() { return (enum2str(ServiceStatus::findByRecId(this.ServiceStatus).ServiceSubStatus)); } }

Try the code above (I used enum2str and changed return type to string)

ServiceSubStatus exists as Base Enum (I have created it) and labels are fine, I am not sure why I get this result

RE: Getting Enum value for display method x++

What you're describing isn't the expected behavior. What you should see is enum's label, not numeric values.

Could you please look at ServiceSubStatus enum (it doesn't exist in my F&O application) and check the Label property of enum elements? A possible explaination is that somebody set the numbers as labels.

You can use enum2Str function to get the string value of Enum, refer to:

enum2Str Function | Microsoft Docs
