bootstrap enum value giving weird result

Question

I have a domain class that I have a controller and UI that is spitting out [object Object] for the value of an enum.

My enum is as follows:

enum customerenum {
  value1('value1'),
  value2('value2')
}

and I have a domain class customers

class Customer {
  customerenum ce
  String location
}

So now I want to bootstrap this

So in my bootstrap I have

class BootStrap {
  def init = { servletContext ->
    new Customer(
      ce:'value1',
      location:'USA'
    ).save()
  }
}

However in the actual page, the location shows up USA but the customerenum shows up [object Object]

Any thoughts? Thanks!

Answer 1

So it turns out that I need a getvalue() method in the enum as well as you need to call that method when you get the value of the enum in a class or controller. That solved my problem
