I have the following enum -->
public enum SyncStatus
{
Unavailable = 0,
Checking = 5,
StartedAspNetDb = 10,
FinishedAspNetDb = 20,
StartedMatrixDb = 30,
FinishedMatrixDb = 40,
StartedConnectDb = 50,
FinishedConnectDb = 60,
StartedCmoDb = 70,
FinishedCmoDb = 80,
StartedMcpDb = 90,
FinishedMcpDb = 100
}
Which I use here -->
SyncInBackground.ReportProgress(SyncStatus.StartedAspNetDb);
MergeRepl aspnetdbMergeRepl = new MergeRepl(SystemInformation.ComputerName + "\\SQLEXPRESS", "WWCSTAGE", "aspnetdb", "aspnetdb", "aspnetdb");
aspnetdbMergeRepl.RunDataSync();
SyncInBackground.ReportProgress(SyncStatus.FinishedAspNetDb);
SyncInBackground.ReportProgress(SyncStatus.StartedMatrixDb);
MergeRepl matrixMergeRepl = new MergeRepl(SystemInformation.ComputerName + "\\SQLEXPRESS", "WWCSTAGE", "MATRIX", "MATRIX", "MATRIX");
matrixMergeRepl.RunDataSync();
SyncInBackground.ReportProgress(SyncStatus.FinishedMatrixDb);
SyncInBackground.ReportProgress(SyncStatus.StartedConnectDb);
MergeRepl connectMergeRepl = new MergeRepl(SystemInformation.ComputerName + "\\SQLEXPRESS", "WWCSTAGE", "CONNECT", "Connect", "Connect");
connectMergeRepl.RunDataSync();
SyncInBackground.ReportProgress(SyncStatus.FinishedConnectDb);
What I don't understand is why, if int is default enum governing type
, do I have to CAST
this line, like so -->
SyncInBackground.ReportProgress((int)SyncStatus.Checking);
Forgive my ignorance I just like to understand the why of things not just that they are so.
