Topic: Mapping Enum Values

Hi,
Just wondering if there's an elegant way of us handling converting any specification defined enum values (such as http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/action-grouping-behavior "visual-group" to ActionGroupingBehavior.VisualGroup)? Is it safe to assume that I can just parse my "spec-compliant" input data and create an enum value by removing the hypens, or is there other characters in the specification that might catch me out?
Thanks,
Stephen

Assuming you mean the ones that have a generated enum, there is a function that does this in the project
Hl7.Fhir.Model.AdministrativeGender? gender = EnumUtility.ParseLiteral<Hl7.Fhir.Model.AdministrativeGender>("male");

@Brian Postlethwaite That look like just the thing, thanks a lot.
