Deserializing an enum with a string causes hang

Enum are stored as int not name. I can support for name.

Thanks

If you could support for name as well that would be great.

I am getting json from a remote source with some data types that have distinct values, I would prefer to store them as enums rather than use strings.

Thanks.

It is doable. I will go with the option of introducing a flag that
determines how to work with enums. So by default it will be int and you
will be able to turn it on to use string instead globally.

Great thanks

For now. You can use a string property to deserialize the value and then
create a temp get property that will return the enumeration representation
of the string using enum.parse. Then when I check in the solution you can
remove the temp property.

You will need to set NetJSON.UseEnumString to true for it to properly deserialize using "One" and e.t.c rather than the int value of the enum.
