+# Enum abstract instances
+
+* Proposal: [HXP-NNNN](0000-enum-abstract-instances.md)
+* Author: [markknol](https://github.com/markknol)
+
+## Introduction
+
+Allow instances as enum abstract values. 
+
+```haxe
+@:forward
+enum abstract Person( { final name:String; final age:Int; } )  {
+  final Mark = { name: "Mark", age: 21 };
+  final John = { name: "John", age: 25 };
+  final Elisa = { name: "Elisa", age: 28 };
+}
+```
+This would allow to use the enum be used in switches too:
+```haxe
+final person:Person = Mark;
+
+var message = switch person {
+  case Mark: 'Hello from The Netherlands, my name is ${person.name}';
+  case John: 'Hello from the USA, I am ${person.age} years old';
+  case Elisa: 'Hello from Japan';
+}
+
+trace('Message: $message');
+```
+
+## Motivation
+
+Currently when you try to use instance values in enum abstract the compiler gives an error:  
+`Inline variable initialization must be a constant value`
+
+This can lead to using workarounds that's more error-phrone. Allowing instances could be a pragmatic and neat solution.
+
+Allowing instances complies and compliments the goals of enum abstracts:
+
+* The typer can ensure that all values of the set are typed correctly.
+* The pattern matcher checks for exhaustiveness when matching an enum abstract.
+* Defining fields requires less syntax.
+
+## Detailed design
+
+* All values are generated as static read-only singletons. 
+* Values are required. In case primitive types sometimes values are generated.
+* Current enum abstract values are inlined, but that shouldn't happen for instances. 
+* When using the values in a `switch` (pattern matching), an `if-else` branch should be generated `if (person == Person.Mark) ..`.
+
+## Impact on existing code
+
+There should be no impact on existing code, since this is a new feature, a removal of a current restriction.
+
+## Drawbacks
+
+One argument against this is that we get these hidden if-else chains when pattern matching. But then again that's already the case for String matching on most targets (Although that can in theory be optimized more)
+
+## Alternatives
+
+The alternatives are always workarounds where you lose the type-safety or the nice things that Haxe pattern matching brings.  
+For example you can create a static map to the enum abstract with a `.get()` function, but that is slower but also takes more time to write. But this never guarantees that all values are in.  
+Another alternative would be to have a Pair type. This also doesn't guarantees that all values are in.  Both also don't give the power of pattern matching.
+
+## Opening possibilities
+
+A nice illustration of the usage/possibilities would be an extended version of the "Taste of haxe" (from haxe.org).
+
+```haxe
+class Game {
+  // Haxe applications have a static entry point called main
+  static function main() {
+    // Anonymous structures.
+    var playerA:Player = { person: John, move: Paper }
+    var playerB:Player = { person: Jane, move: Rock }
+        
+    // Array pattern matching. A switch can return a value.
+    var result = switch [playerA.move, playerB.move] {
+      case [Rock, Scissors] | 
+           [Paper, Rock] |
+           [Scissors, Paper]: Winner(playerA);
+            
+      case [Rock, Paper] |
+           [Paper, Scissors] |
+           [Scissors, Rock]: Winner(playerB);
+            
+      case _: Draw;
+    }
+    // Paper vs Rock, who wins?
+    var message = switch result {
+      case Result(player): 
+        switch player.person { 
+          case John: 
+            'Our ${player.person.name} wins a lot, even though he is ${player.person.age} years old!';
+          case Jane | Elisa: 
+            'One of the women won, it was ${player.person.name}!';
+          case other: 
+            'An interesting round, but ${other.person.name} has won this time!';
+        }
+      case Draw: 
+        "Draw!";
+    }
+    // log the message
+    trace(message);
+  }
+}
+
+enum abstract Person({ final name: String; final age:Int }) {
+  final John = { name: "John Bon", age: 65 };
+  final Jane = { name: "Jane Dane", age: 18 };
+  final Mark = { name: "Mark Hark", age: 36 };
+  final Elisa = { name: "Elisa Disa", age: 42 };
+}
+
+// Allow anonymous structure named as type.
+typedef Player = { 
+  final person: Person; 
+  final move: Move;
+}
+
+// Define multiple enum values.
+enum Move { Rock; Paper; Scissors; }
+
+// Enums in Haxe are algebraic data type (ADT), so they can hold data.
+enum Result { 
+  Winner(player:Player); 
+  Draw; 
+}
+```
+
+## Unresolved questions
+
+- Would it be bad / confusing that you can alter values inside the instance?
+- There a concern for hidden cost of this feature? 
+- How can this be effectively be generated for each platform?
