Try this minimal code:
void Main() { Foo test; test = 0; test = 1; Console.WriteLine(test); } enum Foo { Bar, Baz }
The string test = 1 will cause a compilation error, however the string test = 0 will be compiled with pleasure!
CS0266 Cannot implicitly convert type 'int' to 'UserQuery.Foo'. Explicit conversion exists (are you skipping listing?)
Compiler Version: Microsoft (R) Visual C # Compiler version 1.0.0.50618
Why can I assign only zero? Should this not be the missing error in both cases?
