Using generics with enums

[sumit anand kumar]

Hi All,

I have a use case of an enum A, that has 4 values & these 4 values maps to 4 different emums , so that i can access the values of those enums

E.g:

                                       -----------------Value 1.1
     ------Value 1  -------Enum B------|
A -|                                   ---------------Value 1.2       
     ------Value 2------Enum C--------------------------------|--------Value 2.1
                                                               -------------------------Value 2.2

I can do A.Value_1.getMappedEnum().Value_1.1

or A.Value_2.getMappedEnum().Value_2.2

I feel this can be achieved by using generics + enums. I have not succeeded in doing so.
My source of truth is http://madbean.com/2004/mb2004-3/ & http://www.angelikalanger.com/GenericsFAQ/FAQSections/TypeParameters.html#FAQ106.


Could anyone please help me in achieving this.

Sumit
