Question

I am trying to develop a class that I can use to create table/columns in SQLite dynamically; I have created my class as follow:

public class NewColumns
{
    public string ClmName;

    public Types NewType { get; set; }

    public void SetName(string NewColumn)
    {
        ClmName = NewColumn;
    }
}

public enum Types
{
    INTEGER = 0,
    REAL = 1,
    NUMERIC = 2,
    TEXT = 3,
    BLOB = 4,
}

public static bool CreateTable(string DBPath, string TableName, params NewColumns ClumnName)
{
    bool succ = false;
    mDBcon.ConnectionString = "Data Source=" + DBPath + ".db3";
    mDBcon.Open();
    cmd = new SQLiteCommand(mDBcon);
    cmd.CommandText = "CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS " + TableName + " (ISBN VARCHAR(15), Tag VARCHAR(15));";
    cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
    return succ;
}

I would like to pass my new values to the class like this:

clsSqlite.CreateTable("test", "newTable", new clsSqlite.NewColumns { ClmName = "", NewType.INTEGER });

But the “NewType” on the code above not recognising my enum Values and its give me the following error if I type the enum value ‘INTEGER’ manually:

Invalid initializer member declaratory

Thanks in advance for the help.

Regards,

clsSqlite.CreateTable(
    "test", 
    "newTable", 
    new clsSqlite.NewColumns { ClmName = "", NewType = Types.INTEGER });

NewType is the name of your property, the enum is called Types
