Mapping enum collections

[VFSwiss]

Hi.

Is it possible to map to an array of enums?
I took the Value types collection example, #21, but it doesn't work if you change the type from int to an enum and I can't see a way of getting it to work, I tried using ITypeConverter but by the time CanConvert is called the type if already a list (not int or enum) and the values are all zero.

Am I missing something?
Is there a workaround?

Thanks, Vincent

(sorry about the formatting but the code markup didn't work)

public class OrderTypeConverter : Slapper.AutoMapper.Configuration.ITypeConverter
{
public int Order => 1;

public bool CanConvert(object value, Type type)
{
var conversionType = Nullable.GetUnderlyingType(type) ?? type;
return conversionType == typeof(IList);
}

public object Convert(object value, Type type)
{
var list = value as IEnumerable;
return list?.Cast().ToList();
}
}
public enum OrderType
{
NotSet = 0,
Online = 3,
Phone = 5
}

public class Customer
{
public int CustomerId;
public IList OrdersIds;
}

[Test]
public void I_Can_Map_Value_Typed_Collection()
{
Slapper.AutoMapper.Configuration.TypeConverters.Add(new OrderTypeConverter());

// Arrange
var dictionary = new Dictionary<string, object>
{
{ "CustomerId", 1 },
{ "OrdersIds_$", 3 },
};

var dictionary2 = new Dictionary<string, object>
{
{ "CustomerId", 1 },
{ "OrdersIds_$", 5 }
};

var list = new List<IDictionary<string, object>> { dictionary, dictionary2 };

// Act
var customers = Slapper.AutoMapper.Map(list);

// There should only be a single customer
Assert.That(customers.Count() == 1);

// There should be two values in OrdersIds, with the correct values
Assert.That(customers.FirstOrDefault().OrdersIds.Count == 2);
Assert.That(customers.FirstOrDefault().OrdersIds[0] == OrderType.Online);
Assert.That(customers.FirstOrDefault().OrdersIds[1] == OrderType.Phone);
}
