Enum in C# and foreach

Hi
All,

I have an
Enum

public enum
            AttributeType
 {
 TextField = 1, 

 TextArea =
            2,
 Date = 4, 
 Boolean = 8

            }

I want to foreach
this enum and make an object array of it in this format

object data = new
            object[]
{

 // new object[] { 1,"TextField"}

            new object[] { enumValue,
            enumText}
};

Answer

Well, this would do it (assuming .NET
3.5):

var allValues =
            (AttributeType[]) Enum.GetValues(typeof(AttributeType));

var array
            = allValues.Select(value => new object[] { value, value.ToString()
            })


            .ToArray();

or use an
anonymous type:

var array =
            allValues.Select(value => { Value = value, Name = value.ToString() })

            .ToArray();
