Hallo,

thanks for the quick reply!

I should have written, that I already read the spec, and
also found some examples both for orbit-python and
omniORBpy, but no document showed the use of "embedded"
enum values e.g. in a union:

module M {
  union U switch (enum E { A, B }) {
    case A: ...;
    case B: ...;
  };
};

So it's more a problem with enums than with unions,
because here I have the same problem:

module M {
  struct S {
    enum E { A, B } X;
  };
};

I think I have to put the enum outside of the union
or the struct, but that's not so nice.

Cheers!
