Igor Sapego commented on IGNITE-3581:
-------------------------------------

[~ptupitsyn] well, yeah, it's common practice. In C++11 there are special enum 
types for that - {{enum class}}, but previously it was ordinary achieved by 
placing enums in separate namespaces or struct. I like structs more because you 
can place them inside other classes and because of the naming consistency 
(namespaces usually use snake_case). You can see details 
[here|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7090130/enum-in-a-namespace] for 
example.
