Hi,

How do I cast an enum to an integer a.k.a. acquire the enums value?

e.g.

enum Period
    hour = 8736,
    working_hour = 2080,
    day = 365,
    week = 52,
    fortnight = 26,
    month = 12,
    bimonth = 6,
    quarter = 4,
    third = 3,
    semiannual = 2,
    annual = 1

How do I get the value for Period.week i.e. 52.

Thanks

Use type casting:

print someEnum to int
# general form of type cast expression:
<expression> to <type>

I should have read more of the manual. I would have found what I was looking for. Sorry for taking the lazy route. BTW FYI I'm going to be giving a talk on Cobra at my local Python Django meet-up in May or June. Spreading the word a bit :-)
