Enum conversion

[Russel Winder via Digitalmars-d-learn]

Hi,

Given an enum:

enum ZoneNumber {
    One = 1,
    Two = 2,
}

then which of these is the right way of accessing the value?

cast(ubyte)ZoneNumber.One
to!ubyte(ZoneNumber.One)

conversely what is the right way of going the other way:

cast(ZoneNumber)1
to!ZoneNumber(1)

I tried:

enum ZoneNumber : ubyte {
    One = 1,
    Two = 2,
}

but the members One and Two still seem to be types as int. :-(
