[REST API] Best way to expose consumed Static Entities/Enums
Question
REST

Hi,

When consuming a REST Service that has some ENUMS defined, these are translated(as far as I can tell), to in-memory static entities. 

This makes it troublesome to then consume as aggregates for, say, dropdown selections etc.. Are there any best-practices or solutions to use these?

Thanks!

I would be interested in an answer, just running into the same issue. 

One way to deal with it is to re-create the static entities, but this decouples the values from the service. If I am basing my app on the values of a services, I might want to control the possible values using the service.
