Enum element definition?

struct imageInfo{

        enum SliceOrientation 
        { 
            XY_PLANE = 0, 
            XZ_PLANE = 1, 
            YZ_PLANE = 2, 
            UNCHOSEN = 3
        } 
        sliceOrientation;

        int xOnViewer;
        int yOnViewer; 
        std::string sourceName;
        int viewerWindowWidth;
        int viewerWindowHeight;
    };


int main()
{

    imageInfo image;
    image.sliceOrientation = UNCHOSEN;
}

Why does the compiler keep saying UNCHOSEN is not defined? Can you tell me what exactly I am doing wrong in constructing and using the Enum SliceOrientation as a member of the struct imageInfo? I meant to make this code for c++.

Thanks

SliceOrientation is a nested type of imageInfo so you need to qualify its name outside that struct. If you write

image.sliceOrientation = imageInfo::UNCHOSEN;

in your main, it will compile.
