Re: Enum as a model

<code>
//Enum:

public enum X {
     FIRST, SECOND
}

//Class:

public class Y {

   private X localEnum;

   public X getLocalEnum(){
      return this.localEnum;
   }

   void setLocalEnum(X localEnum){
        this.localEnum = localEnum;
   }

}

//Insance to serve as model:

Y yInstance = new Y();

//Freemaker model:

Map<String, Object> model = new HashMap<String, Object>();
model.put("yInst", yInstance);

//Template:

The value of X in Y: ${yInst.localEnum}

</code>

So what I have is a model which contains an enum and I want simply to show
the assigned value. I have read what you have referenced but I do not see
how to apply it to my quite simple case. On the other hand I read a post
where it is written that the problem with enums is comming from the fact
that instead of getName(), they are reference with name() and thus Freemaker
does not recognize that as property but as function the return value of
which it can not display. I have a hard time however to believe that an enum
can not be used as a model for freemaker, there must be something I have
missed.
