 Post subject: Enums with char values

Hi,

I am using NHibernate against an existing system which uses enums like this:

Code:
public enum Status
{
    Unallocated = 'U', Hold = 'H', Wait = 'W'
}


If I use EnumStringType, it just uses the full enum value (i.e. "Unallocated") rather than the character value. How can I remedy this?

Thanks!

If someone can definitely say that this is a bug/missing feature I can probably fix it this weekend.

As far as I can find it has been raised multiple times without a real conclusion. I think I have solved it by creating a UserType, but the UserType is three times more code than the enum itself, though it could be made generic. It would definitely be better to have this functionality out of the box.

http://jira.nhibernate.org/browse/NH-1248

Works just like EnumStringType except it persists the underlying char value. C# doesn't support enums with type char so technically its all Int32 under the hood but it still has the desired effect.
