C++11 extensions to enums – enum classes versus original “plain” enums (scoped and strongly-typed versus unscoped).

Underlying type is int:

enum struct|class Color { red, green, blue };
...
Color::red
Color::green

Possible definitions:

Warning w1 = Warning::red;
enum Warning w2 = Warning::green;
enum class Warning w3 = Warning::blue; // no
