how do I create a struct similar to system.drawing.color

Jul 23 2010 5:42 PM

I want a struct in my code that is similar in functionality to System.Drawing.Color.

basically, I want a "user friendly" way to access properties (or really for someone to understand my code)

instead of :

something = 0;

switch (something) {

case 0: ....

case 1: ....

}

I want:

something = something.FriendlyValueName;

switch (something) {

case something.FriendlyValueName: ...

case something.DifferentFriendlyValueName: ...

}

for example, with Color...

System.Drawing.Color ABC = new System.Drawing.Color.White;

switch (ABC) {

case System.Drawing.Color.Black: ...

case System.Drawing.Color.White: ...

}

does that make any sense?
