Many at times, we have a string which needs to be converted into Enum. I will be sharing few options as stated by Mr.Haki<\/a>, Isa Goksu and in the last the one I discovered during the process.\u00a0Lets say we have a Enum AccountType as given below :<\/p>\n

[groovy]<\/p>\n

enum AccountType {
\n CHECKING,
\n SAVING
\n}<\/p>\n

assert AccountType.CHECKING == &quot;CHECKING&quot; as AccountType<\/p>\n

assert AccountType.CHECKING == AccountType.valueOf(&quot;CHECKING&quot;)
\ndef className = AccountType.class
\nassert AccountType.CHECKING == Enum.valueOf(className, &quot;CHECKING&quot;)<\/p>\n

assert AccountType.CHECKING == AccountType[&quot;CHECKING&quot;]
\nString type = &quot;CHECKING&quot;
\nassert AccountType.CHECKING == AccountType[type]<\/p>\n

[\/groovy]<\/p>\n
