Enum String Name from Value

Use this:

string bob = nameof(EnumDisplayStatus.Visible);

If you need to get a string "Visible" without getting EnumDisplayStatus instance you can do this:

int dbValue = GetDBValue();
string stringValue = Enum.GetName(typeof(EnumDisplayStatus), dbValue);

You can convert the int back to an enumeration member with a simple cast, and then call ToString():

int value = GetValueFromDb();
var enumDisplayStatus = (EnumDisplayStatus)value;
string stringValue = enumDisplayStatus.ToString();

Try this:

string m = Enum.GetName(typeof(MyEnumClass), value);
