Question

If I want to exclude problems with enums and type redefinition in C++ I can use the code:

struct VertexType
{
    enum
    {
        Vector2 = 1,
        Vertor3 = 2,
        Vector4 = 3,
    };
};

struct Vector2 { ... };
struct Vector3 { ... };
struct Vector3 { ... };

Is there a way to remove the wrapper above enum. I looked at C++0x but didn’t find addiditional inforamtion about solving this problem.

How about namespace?

namespace VertexType
{
    enum V
    {
        Vector2 = 1,
        Vertor3 = 2,
        Vector4 = 3,
    };
}

struct Vector2 { ... };
struct Vector3 { ... };
struct Vector4 { ... };
