Custom Enum Issue

[ChrisR]

Hello all,
I am trying to create a enum as a user input to allow the user to select an option which would switch an integer value. The below code prints "1", regardless of which value (NQ or ES) is selected. I'm not sure where I have it wrong here.

switch (asset)
{
      case AssetName.ES:
      {
            x = 1;
            break;
      }
      case AssetName.NQ:
      {
            x = 2;
            break;
      }​
}

Print(x);

[Display(Name = "Ticker", GroupName="Inputs")]
public AssetName Asset
{
      get { return asset; }
      set { asset = asset; }
}​

public enum AssetName
{
    ES,
    NQ
}​

[Display(Name = "Ticker", GroupName="Inputs")]
public AssetName Asset
{
    get { return asset; }
    set { asset = value; }
}

You had,

asset = asset;

It should be,

asset = value;

-=o=-

Or you could do this,

[Display(Name = "Ticker", GroupName="Inputs")]
public AssetName Asset { get; set; }

and then use uppercase 'Asset' property everywhere you're
currently using the lowercase 'asset' variable. Then delete
the lowercase 'asset' variable, since it's no longer being used.

ahhh, that makes sense. The second option is perfect. Thanks David.
