Jens Geyer updated THRIFT-1876:
-------------------------------

    Description: 
Same as in THRIFT-1318 with C#. 
It makes more sense to write

{code}
Self.Property = TMyEnumType.SomeValue;
{code}

instead of the C-ish casting style like in 

{code}
Self.Property = TMyEnumType(-42);
{code}

And since it seems not to be possible to assign values other than the 
IDL-defined enum values, there is no reason left to use the cast.
