<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div>Hi, about this enum/const thing, The use case I like more is a class where you know all the<br>instances and not just a sequence of names.<br></div>Particularly It would be nice to have custom attributes and methods besides the value and the name.<br>
<br></div>I have my own implementation with a basic api somewhat borrowed from flufl.enum (plus a lot of other stuff),<br>but with this kind of support: <a href="https://github.com/jbvsmo/makeobj">https://github.com/jbvsmo/makeobj</a><br>
</div><div></div><div><br></div>I couldn't find the best way to express enums with the current python syntax, so I also wrote a simple<br></div>regex-parsed language to fit objects with an arbitrary level of complexity. I think, enumeration per se<br>
</div>is not much more useful than just a bunch of integers... Having this kind of control IMO is.<br><br></div>Although Java is not a good example of anything, they have a similar feature. What do you people think?<br></div>
