digitalmars.D.learn - String representation of enum value

reply Marek Janukowicz <marek janukowicz.net> writes:
Given following code:

enum ErrorCode {
  BAD_REQUEST,
  UNKNOWN
}

ErrorCode code;

is there any way to get string representation of code with regard to values 
defined in enum? I mean - if code == 0, I'd like to get a string 
"BAD_REQUEST", if it's == 1, I'd like to get string a "UNKNOWN". Of course 
I'd like to use something more consise and elegant than a switch :)

I think std.conv.to!string is what are you looking for :)
