How to Persist an enum as integer or shortint in ServiceStack.OrmLite?

Question

As a default, enum properties are stored as varchar(8000) in Sql Server. How can I store as shortint or int?

public enum MyEnum
{
   EnumA=1,
   EnumB=2,
   EnumC=3
}

Not fragile.

There is no solution for it. You have to implement your own Enum as int wrapper.
