Bitwise flags and Switch statement?

Question

I have the following code (example), and I'm really not comfortable with so many 'if' checks:

public enum Flags 
{
    p1 = 0x01,  // 0001
    p2 = 0x02,  // 0010  
    p3 = 0x04,  // 0100
    p4 = 0x08   // 1000
};      

public static void MyMethod (Flags flag)
{
    if ((flag & Flags.p1) == Flags.p1)
        DoSomething();

    if ((flag & Flags.p2) == Flags.p2)
        DosomethingElse();

    if ((flag & Flags.p3) == Flags.p3)
        DosomethingElseAgain();

    if ((flag & Flags.p4) == Flags.p4)
        DosomethingElseAgainAndAgain();
}

MyMethod(Flags.p1 | Flags.p3);

Is there some way, that i could use an 'switch' statement. Maybe if I convert them to strings, or use arrays?

Answer 1

Something like this?

public static void MyMethod(Flags flag)
{
    // Define action-lookup
    var actionsByFlag = new Dictionary<Flags, Action>
    {
        { Flags.p1, DoSomething},
        { Flags.p2, DosomethingElse},
        { Flags.p3, DosomethingElseAgain},
        { Flags.p4, DosomethingElseAgainAndAgain},
    };

    // Find applicable actions
    var actions = actionsByFlag.Where(kvp => (flag & kvp.Key) == kvp.Key)
                               .Select(kvp => kvp.Value);

    //Execute applicable actions
    foreach (var action in actions)
       action();
}

EDIT: If the order of actions are important, an OrderBy clause may be required.
