Question

need help

I have this enum which sets the PayClassNo to Direct and Indirect. I want to use this enum in my LinQ query.

Here’s my scratch LinQ query:

var jDef = from jd in context.GetTable<RJVDefinition>()
                       select new PayrollJVDefinition
                       {
                           JVdefNo = jd.JVDefNo,
                           AccntCode = jd.AccntCode,
                           AccntDesc = jd.AccntDesc,
                           PayClass = enum.GetValue(jd.PayClassNo),
                           IsFixed = jd.IsFixed,
                           IsEmployee = jd.IsFixed,
                           IsAR = jd.IsAR,
                           CreatedByNo = jd.CreatedByNo,
                           CreatedDate = jd.CreatedDate,
                           ModifiedByNo = jd.ModifiedByNo,
                           ModifiedDate = jd.ModifiedDate
                       };

Need help because I’m not sure if this will work.

You just need to parse the Enum just use something like

Enum.Parse(jb.PayClassNo, YourEnumType)
