Benedikt Ritter commented on LANG-1136:
---------------------------------------
Okay putting together a bigger example your proposal looks like this:
{code:java}
public enum Day {
MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY, SUNDAY
}
public enum DayOfWeek {
MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY, SUNDAY
}
assertNull(EnumUtils.valueOf(Day.class, null))
assertEquals(Day.MONDAY, EnumUtils.valueOf(Day.class, DayOfWeek.MONDAY));
{code}
Looks like an odd use case to translate from one enum to another. Have you
thought about implementing the functionality in either of your enum classes?

> Add a method in EnumUtils to 'translate' an enum value.
> Example :
> Enum1
> Enum2
> Object.enum2
> Enum1 getEnum(Enum1.class, Object.enum2);
> If enum2 is null, returns 2, else returns the Enum1 with the same name as
> Object.enum2, throws exception if no such Enum1.
