Use enum defined in a struct as case constatnt in C++

Vote count:

I have an enum as a member of a structure defined in a header file. For example,

struct abc{
    enum xyz{
        FIRST =1;
        SEC =2;
    }qw;
};

In my .cpp file , I have included this header. I have a switch case in my file where these enums are to be used as case constatnts.

struct abc az;
switch(az.qw){
case FIRST:....
case SEC:...
default:..
}

But I get error as FIRST is not declared in this scope. How to overcome the problem.
