💖 ExtUtils::XSpp::Node::EnumValue 💖

okay bestie, so this one is ExtUtils::XSpp::Node::EnumValue from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it's literally one of the XSpp node classes — iykyk. let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

ExtUtils::XSpp::Node::EnumValue — the Node representing an enum element 💅

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so ExtUtils::XSpp::Node::EnumValue is a subclass of ExtUtils::XSpp::Node, and it represents an enum declaration. like, that's its whole job. it ate.

say you write something like this:

enum Bool
{
    FALSE = 0,
    TRUE
};

that? that right there is giving two ExtUtils::XSpp::Node::EnumValue objects, no cap:

• the first one has name FALSE and value 0 🎀
• the second one has name TRUE and no value at all (it's giving mystery, it's giving undefined 🙈)

and here's the tea bestie: enumerations do not affect the generated code. like, zero impact. they're just vibing in the tree. ✨

---

🔥 METHODS 🔥

🌟 new

my $e = ExtUtils::XSpp::Node::EnumValue->new( name  => 'FALSE',
                                              value => '0x1 | 0x4',
                                              );

creates a brand new ExtUtils::XSpp::Node::EnumValue, slay 💅

and just so you know — value is optional. so if you don't pass it, that's valid, she's allowed to be mysterious. 🦋
