# Displaying the problem. Flags enum are supposed to have each "flag" as a power of two, eg | |
# 0x1, 0x2, 0x4, 0x8, 0x10, 0x20, 0x40, 0x80, etc. When you let the enum choose its own values, | |
# even with the [Flags] attribute applied, that doesn't happen. | |
foreach ($name in [Enum]::GetNames([EnumSample])) | |

[pscustomobject] @{ | |
Name = $name | |
Value = [EnumSample]::$name.value__ | |
Hex = '0x{0:X8}' -f [EnumSample]::$name.value__ | |
} | |
