This morning I convered an enumeration from some VB code into a union in F#.
This enum had been created so that I could create a generic "tab" view and
view-model in WPF, and could easily tell each instance what tab it was to be.
Unfortunately, I began receiving an error to the effect of The TypeConverter
for "Tabs" does not support converting from a string. To solve this, I added an
attribute to the union and a separate class definition; I can now set <DataTab
TabType="Search" /> with no problems! Code below for my own future reference:
