Lincoln Baxter III closed SEAMFORGE-51.
---------------------------------------

         Assignee: Lincoln Baxter III
    Fix Version/s: 1.0.0.Alpha3
       Resolution: Done


I solved this more generally by implementing prompts for Enum typed @Options:

[example] example $ persistence setup --provider FOO --container BAR
***INFO*** Could not parse [FOO]... please try again...
[provider=ARG (org.jboss.seam.forge.spec.jpa.api.JPAProvider)]: 

  1 - [HIBERNATE]
  2 - [OPENJPA]
  3 - [ECLIPSELINK]

Choose an option by typing the number of the selection: 1
***INFO*** Could not parse [BAR]... please try again...
[container=ARG (org.jboss.seam.forge.spec.jpa.api.JPAContainer)]: 

  1 - [JBOSS_6]
  2 - [GLASSFISH_3]
  3 - [CUSTOM_JDBC]
  4 - [CUSTOM_JTA]
  5 - [CUSTOM_NON_JTA]

Choose an option by typing the number of the selection: 2
