Perhaps not as clean and easy as the functionality being built-in, but it gets the job done.
I would suggest to use the built-in functionality then.
enum cases are literally just class constants, thus you can access them via the constant() function or the dynamic class constant fetch syntax for PHP 8.3+ and check their existence with defined():
https://3v4l.org/44goe
<?php
enum ExampleEnum
{
case ONE;
case TWO;
case THREE;
}
$caseName = 'ONE';
var_dump(defined(ExampleEnum::class . "::{$caseName}"));
var_dump(constant(ExampleEnum::class . "::{$caseName}"));
var_dump(ExampleEnum::{$caseName});
Outputs:
bool(true)
enum(ExampleEnum::ONE)
enum(ExampleEnum::ONE)
