Is it possible to generate enum from Array<String> in Swift?

Question

Here is my enum:

enum myEnum : Int {
    case apple = 0
    case orange
    case lemon
}

I would like to create it from an array. The array elements could be the name of the enums.

let myEnumDictionary : Array<String> = ["apple","orange","lemon"]

So is it possible to create enums from an array?

Answer 1

No, it's not possible. In the same way you can't create classes from arrays.

Enums must be compiled. You can't create them dynamically.
