当您不需要行为，但需要比简单的数组或字典更多的结构时。

跟进 这就是我对结构体的一般看法。我知道他们可以有方法，但我喜欢保持整体的精神区分。

我认为最好的答案就是当你需要的是属性的集合时使用struct，当你需要的是属性和行为的集合时使用class。

当您需要值类型语义而不是引用类型时，请使用结构。结构体是按值复制的，所以要小心!

另见以前的问题，例如:

.NET中struct和class的区别是什么?

我会在以下情况下使用结构体:

an object is supposed to be read only(every time you pass/assign a struct it gets copied). Read only objects are great when it comes to multithreaded processing as they don't requite locking in most cases. an object is small and short-living. In such a case there is a good chance that the object will be allocated on the stack which is much more efficient than putting it on the managed heap. What is more the memory allocated by the object will be freed as soon as it goes outside its scope. In other words it's less work for Garbage Collector and the memory is used more efficient.

这是一个老话题，但希望提供一个简单的基准测试。

我已经创建了两个。cs文件:

public class TestClass
{
    public long ID { get; set; }
    public string FirstName { get; set; }
    public string LastName { get; set; }
}

and

public struct TestStruct
{
    public long ID { get; set; }
    public string FirstName { get; set; }
    public string LastName { get; set; }
}

运行基准:

创建一个TestClass 创建一个TestStruct 创建100个TestClass 创建100个TestStruct 创建10000个TestClass 创建10000 TestStruct

嗯…

I wouldn't use garbage collection as an argument for/against the use of structs vs classes. The managed heap works much like a stack - creating an object just puts it at the top of the heap, which is almost as fast as allocating on the stack. Additionally, if an object is short-lived and does not survive a GC cycle, deallocation is free as the GC only works with memory that's still accessible. (Search MSDN, there's a series of articles on .NET memory management, I'm just too lazy to go dig for them).

大多数情况下，我使用结构体时，都会后悔这样做，因为我后来发现使用引用语义会让事情更简单一些。

无论如何，上面的MSDN文章中的这四点似乎是一个很好的指导方针。
