There was a problem hiding this comment.
Has this been corrected for the new submodule directory?

It is cumbersome to convert between enum and string representations, because C++ standard does not provide any tools for that purpose. Currently our codebase requires writing manual conversion functions which is inefficient and inflexible. This PR introduces
