Question

suppose I have an enum

[Flags] public enum E {      zero = 0,     one = 1 } 

then I can write

E e; object o = 1; e = (E) o; 

and it will work.

BUT if I try to do that at runtime, like

(o as IConvertible).ToType(typeof(E), null) 

it will throw InvalidCastException.

So, is there something that I can invoke at runtime, and it will convert from int32 to enum, in the same way as if I wrote a cast as above?

Answer 1

  object o = 1; object z = Enum.ToObject(typeof(E), o);
