If I have to do it manually it pretty much defeats the purpose of using it in the first place. I want it to be automated.

You can't do that cause # is invalid preprocessor token. Instead you
should explicitly write include lines:
#define CHECK_MATCH_AND_RETURN( action ) if( str == #action ) { return action; }CHECK_MATCH_AND_RETURN( ROTATE_LEFT )CHECK_MATCH_AND_RETURN( ROTATE_RIGHT )
#include BOOST_PP_UPDATE_COUNTER()#include BOOST_PP_UPDATE_COUNTER()etc.
