Type Parameters

TEnum: The enumeration type to which to convert value.

Parameters

value: Type: System..::..String
The string representation of the enumeration name or underlying value to convert.

result: Type: TEnum%
When this method returns, result contains an object of type TEnum whose value is represented by value if the parse operation succeeds. If the parse operation fails, result contains the default value of the underlying type of TEnum. Note that this value need not be a member of the TEnum enumeration. This parameter is passed uninitialized.

Return Value

true if the value parameter was converted successfully; otherwise, false.

Exceptions
