Switch Code Snippet For Enums
Posted In: C# by rauchy
Perhaps this is a well-known feature and I’m a moron for posting about it, but I just noticed the switch code snippet.
I was working with this enum:
public enum AvatarSource
{
Gravatar, Uploaded, Web
}
and I wanted some conditional logic performed, depending on an AvatarSource instance. So I started to type switch and then thought I might use a code snippet for it, so I pressed TAB twice.
Well, I didn’t see this coming.
switch (avatarSource)
{
case AvatarSource.Gravatar:
break;
case AvatarSource.Uploaded:
break;
case AvatarSource.Web:
break;
default:
break;
}
Once you enter the variable for your switch block, the snippet automatically adds a block for each value in your enum.
Sweet.
