Make an enum that isnt int based..

[cjard]

I'm working with some XML and some tags are enumeration based in what they will accept. Because the enum values "A01" and "B01" dont make as much sense as what thye are for (Primary/Secondary) i'm wondering if I can make the enum say Primary/Secondary, but refer to values A01/B01


myObj.Role = MyObjRolesEnum.Primary

serialised:

<MyObj>
  <Role>A01</Role>
</MyObj>
