ToString()

Overrides MfObject.ToString

OutputVar := instance.ToString()

ToString()

Gets a string representation of the object.

Returns

Returns var string value representing name(s) of the corresponding the name of the the current Value.

Throws

Throws MfNullReferenceException if method is called on a non-instance.

Remarks

If MfEnum has MfFlagsAttribute as one of it attributes then ToString() will return one or more names separated by comma. One for each flag that is set. Otherwise there will always be only one name in the return string.

Example

; set var initial value to null
outEnum := MfNull.Null

; wrap in try block as ParseItem can throw MfException
try
{
   outEnum := MfEnum.ToObject(RegOptEnum.GetType(), 4) ; 4 is RegBinary
}
catch e
{
   MsgBox, 16, Error, % "There was an error Parsing Item: " . e.Message
   Exit, 1
}

; Display RegBinary in Msgbox
MsgBox % outEnum.Tostring()
