Enums with specific values are not generated in the enum typedef #524
Description
Proto file says the following:
enum Value {
VALUE_UNSPECIFIED = 0;
VALUE12_BIT = 12;
VALUE13_BIT = 13;
VALUE14_BIT = 14;
VALUE15_BIT = 15;
VALUE16_BIT = 16;
}
Code generator creates values:
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 while 0, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 is expected

@Arrowin-87 Are you transferring data from LV -> LV or some other environment? LV enums are required to be non sparse starting from 0. So the LV enum cannot contain values 0, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 directly which is why you see 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. However, on the backend there should be a translation between the LV enum values to the desired protobuf enum values before transmitting data across the wire. So if you were receiving the data in another language/environment, you should actually see 0, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16. Are you seeing something different or were you just confused by the LV enum restrictions?

Yes, I just noticed this can be closed since LabVIEW doesn't support different enum values..
