.NET enums should not be automatically converted to Python int and back

See original GitHub issue

From https://github.com/pythonnet/pythonnet/pull/1179

In Python, it should be possible to refer to enum members: MyEnum.Member, and to create arbitrary enum values from int explicitly like this: MyEnum(42). But by default a number and a value of some enum should not be freely convertible to each other. E.g. this should fail:

void Method(MyEnum value) => ...;

Python:

Method(42); # <- this should be a TypeError

We can add a generic enum codec, that could be enabled on demand to restore old behavior.

@TheCollegedude I’ve just submitted a new PR for master branch to disable default conversion.

If you are planning to stay on 2.5, you can use IPyObjectDecoder. It is marked obsolete, as it might change in 3.0 (so far it has not).

@lostmsu Thanks. But, I have a problem with using 3.0 preview. I’m using it on Anaconda env with Mono on Mac. Is there any way to install preview with conda install -c conda-forge command?
