C-Sharp Mapping for Enumerations

A Slice enumeration maps to the corresponding enumeration in C#. For example:

enum Fruit { Apple, Pear, Orange };

Not surprisingly, the generated C# definition is very similar:

public enum Fruit { Apple, Pear, Orange }

Suppose we modify the Slice definition to include a custom enumerator value:

enum Fruit { Apple, Pear = 3, Orange };

The generated C# definition now includes an explicit initializer for every enumerator:

public enum Fruit { Apple = 0, Pear = 3, Orange = 4 }
