Enums with overridden toString() will not round-trip #108

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Attempt to serialize an Enum that has a non-standard toString() method. The 
toString() output will appear in the dumped YAML. In general, this makes it 
impossible to round-trip data. Instead, SnakeYaml should dump the Enum's name 
property. See 
http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/Enum.html#name()

A patch is attached.
