Is your feature request related to a problem?

Not long ago a feature was introduced for supporting enums with [Flags] attribute.
#5186

Currently there is no way to rename this auto generated type. Example:

[Flags]
public enum MyEnum {
  A
  B
  C
}

public class MyEnumType : EnumType<MyEnum>
{
  protected override Configure(IEnumTypeDescriptor<MyEnum> descriptor)
  {
    descriptor.Name("MyRenamedEnum");
  }
}

Will generate the following:

enum MyRenamedEnum {
  A
  B
  C
}

type MyEnumFlags {
  isA: Boolean!
  isB: Boolean!
  isC: Boolean!
}

Notice that MyEnumFlags is used rather than MyRenamedEnumFlags.

The solution you'd like

Flags enums are supported through TypeInterceptors and not a specific type. As I'm not familiar with these, I'm unsure the best way to support this.

Ideas:

public class MyEnumType : EnumFlagsType<MyEnum>
{
  protected override Configure(IEnumFlagsTypeDescriptor<MyEnum> descriptor)
  {
    descriptor.Name("MyRenamedEnum");
  }
}

Another solution would be to support respecting the original EnumType. The trick here is determining whether the developer
wants the flags type, or actually wants to use the enum type despite flags being enabled.

public class MyEnumType : EnumType<MyEnum>
{
  protected override Configure(IEnumTypeDescriptor<MyEnum> descriptor)
  {
    descriptor.Name("MyRenamedEnum");
  }
}
