GetValue ( )

For example, the code shown below compares a variable to the underlying values of the MAX and MIN members:

ENUM Range:
     DEFINE ENUM MIN = 255
                 MAX = 2147483647.
END NUM.

DEFINE VARIABLE ix AS INT64 NO-UNDO.

IF ix < Range:MIN:GetValue() OR ix > Range:MAX:GetValue() THEN ...

For a flag enum instance that represents multiple flags set, the method returns the single numeric value that represents that combination of flags.
