我只是在修改c#深度的第4章,它涉及到可空类型,我增加了一个关于使用“as”操作符的章节,它允许你这样写:

object o = ...;
int? x = o as int?;
if (x.HasValue)
{
    ... // Use x.Value in here
}

我认为这真的很整洁,它可以比c# 1的等效方法提高性能,使用“is”后面加强制转换——毕竟,这样我们只需要要求进行一次动态类型检查,然后进行简单的值检查。

This appears not to be the case, however. I've included a sample test app below, which basically sums all the integers within an object array - but the array contains a lot of null references and string references as well as boxed integers. The benchmark measures the code you'd have to use in C# 1, the code using the "as" operator, and just for kicks a LINQ solution. To my astonishment, the C# 1 code is 20 times faster in this case - and even the LINQ code (which I'd have expected to be slower, given the iterators involved) beats the "as" code.

对于可空类型的isinst的。net实现真的很慢吗?是额外的开箱。是什么导致了这个问题?还有其他解释吗?目前,我觉得我必须在对性能敏感的情况下使用此功能时提出警告……

当前回答

在我看来,isinst在可空类型上真的很慢。在FindSumWithCast方法中我改变了

if (o is int)

to

if (o is int?)

这也大大降低了执行速度。我能看到的IL的唯一不同是

isinst     [mscorlib]System.Int32

变为

isinst     valuetype [mscorlib]System.Nullable`1<int32>

其他回答

这是上面FindSumWithAsAndHas的结果:

这是FindSumWithCast的结果:

发现:

使用as,它首先测试对象是否是Int32的实例;实际上,它使用isinst Int32(这类似于手写的代码:if (o is int))。使用as,它也无条件地打开对象。调用属性IL_0027是真正的性能杀手(本质上它仍然是一个函数) 使用强制转换,首先测试object是否为int型if (o is int);这是在使用isinst Int32。如果它是int的实例,那么可以安全地将值IL_002D解箱

简单地说,这是使用方法的伪代码:

int? x;

(x.HasValue, x.Value) = (o isinst Int32, o unbox Int32)

if (x.HasValue)
    sum += x.Value;    

这是使用强制转换方法的伪代码:

if (o isinst Int32)
    sum += (o unbox Int32)

所以强制转换((int)a[i],语法看起来像强制转换,但实际上是解装箱,强制转换和解装箱的语法是一样的,下次我会用正确的术语来研究)方法真的更快,你只需要在对象是int类型时解装箱。同样的事情不能说使用as方法。

为了使这个答案保持最新,值得一提的是,对于c# 7.1和。net 4.7来说,本页上的大部分讨论现在都是毫无意义的,因为c# 7.1和。net 4.7支持简洁的语法,而且还能生成最好的IL代码。

OP最初的例子是…

object o = ...;
int? x = o as int?;
if (x.HasValue)
{
    // ...use x.Value in here
}

变得简单…

if (o is int x)
{
    // ...use x in here
}

我发现新语法的一个常见用途是当你编写一个。net值类型(即c#中的struct)实现IEquatable<MyStruct>(大多数应该)。在实现强类型Equals(MyStruct other)方法之后,你现在可以优雅地重定向非类型Equals(Object obj)覆盖(继承自Object)到它,如下所示:

public override bool Equals(Object obj) => obj is MyStruct o && Equals(o);

 


附录:在这个答案中给出的前两个示例函数的发布构建IL代码(分别)在这里。虽然新语法的IL代码确实少了1个字节,但它主要是通过不调用(而不是两个)并尽可能避免开箱操作来获得最大的胜利。

// static void test1(Object o, ref int y)

//     int? x = o as int?;

进一步的测试证实了我关于新c# 7语法性能优于以前可用选项的评论,请参阅这里(特别是示例'D')。

有趣的是,对于Nullable<T>(类似于早期的测试),我通过dynamic传递了关于操作符支持的反馈——我怀疑是出于非常相似的原因。

爱上Nullable<T>。另一个有趣的是,即使JIT发现(并删除)非空结构的null,它也会对Nullable<T>使用它:

using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
static class Program {
    static void Main() { 
        // JIT
        TestUnrestricted<int>(1,5);
        TestUnrestricted<string>("abc",5);
        TestUnrestricted<int?>(1,5);
        TestNullable<int>(1, 5);

        const int LOOP = 100000000;
        Console.WriteLine(TestUnrestricted<int>(1, LOOP));
        Console.WriteLine(TestUnrestricted<string>("abc", LOOP));
        Console.WriteLine(TestUnrestricted<int?>(1, LOOP));
        Console.WriteLine(TestNullable<int>(1, LOOP));

    }
    static long TestUnrestricted<T>(T x, int loop) {
        Stopwatch watch = Stopwatch.StartNew();
        int count = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < loop; i++) {
            if (x != null) count++;
        }
        watch.Stop();
        return watch.ElapsedMilliseconds;
    }
    static long TestNullable<T>(T? x, int loop) where T : struct {
        Stopwatch watch = Stopwatch.StartNew();
        int count = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < loop; i++) {

我们能从这些数字中推断出什么?

First, is-then-cast approach is significantly faster than as approach. 303 vs 3524 Second, .Value is marginally slower than casting. 3524 vs 3272 Third, .HasValue is marginally slower than using manual has(i.e. using is). 3524 vs 3282 Fourth, doing an apple-to-apple comparison(i.e. both assigning of simulated HasValue and converting simulated Value happens together) between simulated as and real as approach, we can see simulated as is still significantly faster than real as. 395 vs 3524 Lastly, based on first and fourth conclusion, there's something wrong with as implementation ^_^
