/// A base class for all Protocol Buffer enum types.
///
/// All Protocol Buffer [:enum:] classes inherit from ProtobufEnum. For
/// example, given the following enum defined in a .proto file:
///
///     message MyMessage {
///       enum Color {
///         RED = 0;
///         GREEN = 1;
///         BLUE = 2;
///       };
///       // ...
///     }
///
/// the generated Dart file will include a [:MyMessage_Color:] class that
/// [:extends ProtobufEnum:]. It will also include a [:const MyMessage_Color:]
/// for each of the three values defined. Here are some examples:
///
///     MyMessage_Color.RED  // => a MyMessage_Color instance
///     MyMessage_Color.GREEN.value  // => 1
///     MyMessage_Color.GREEN.name   // => "GREEN"
class ProtobufEnum {
  /// This enum's integer value, as specified in the .proto file.
  final int value;

  /// This enum's name, as specified in the .proto file.
  final String name;

  /// Returns a new constant ProtobufEnum using [value] and [name].

  /// [ProtobufEnum]'s [value] to the [ProtobufEnum].
