Syntax   An enumeratedValue is:

 enumeratedTypeId . enumeratedId

Description   The values of an enumerated type are written as the type name (enumeratedTypeId) followed by a dot followed by one of the enumerated values of the type (enumeratedId).

Example   In this example, color.red is an enumeratedValue.

        type color : enum (red, green, blue)
        var c : color := color . red
        var d : color := succ (c)       % d becomes green

Details   The above description has been simplified by ignoring the possibility that the enum type can be exported from a module. If this is the case, each use of one of the enumerated values outside of module M must be preceded by the module name and a dot, as in M.color.red.
