使用IClonable接口可以花费多少精力是令人难以置信的，尤其是当您有大量的类层次结构时。MemberwiseColone的工作方式也很奇怪——它甚至不能完全克隆普通的List类型的结构。

当然，串行化最有趣的困境是串行化反向引用——例如，具有子-父关系的类层次结构。我怀疑二进制序列化程序能否在这种情况下帮助您。（最终将导致递归循环+堆栈溢出）。

不知怎么的，我喜欢这里提出的解决方案：如何在.NET（特别是C#）中对对象进行深度复制？

然而，它不支持Lists，并补充说，该支持还考虑到了重新养育子女的问题。对于我制定的仅为父项的规则，该字段或属性应命名为“parent”，则DeepClone将忽略它。您可能需要决定自己的反向引用规则——对于树层次结构，它可能是“左/右”等。。。

                return null;
            }
        } //DeepClone
    }

}

我提出这一点是为了克服.NET的一个缺点，即必须手动深度复制List<T>。

我使用这个：

static public IEnumerable<SpotPlacement> CloneList(List<SpotPlacement> spotPlacements)
{
    foreach (SpotPlacement sp in spotPlacements)
    {
        yield return (SpotPlacement)sp.Clone();
    }
}

在另一个地方：

public object Clone()
{
    OrderItem newOrderItem = new OrderItem();
    ...
    newOrderItem._exactPlacements.AddRange(SpotPlacement.CloneList(_exactPlacements));
    ...
    return newOrderItem;
}

我试图提出一个这样做的oneliner，但这是不可能的，因为yield不能在匿名方法块中工作。

更好的是，使用通用的List<T>克隆器：

class Utility<T> where T : ICloneable
{
    static public IEnumerable<T> CloneList(List<T> tl)
    {
        foreach (T t in tl)
        {
            yield return (T)t.Clone();
        }
    }
}

通常，您实现ICloneable接口并自己实现克隆。C#对象有一个内置的MemberwiseColone方法，该方法执行浅层复制，可以帮助您处理所有原语。

对于深度复制，它无法知道如何自动执行。

由于我在不同的项目中找不到满足我所有需求的克隆器，我创建了一个可以配置并适应不同代码结构的深度克隆器，而不是调整我的代码以满足克隆器的需求。这是通过向要克隆的代码添加注释来实现的，或者您只需保留代码的默认行为。它使用反射、类型缓存并基于fasterflect。对于大量数据和高对象层次结构（与其他基于反射/序列化的算法相比），克隆过程非常快。

也可作为nuget包提供：https://www.nuget.org/packages/Clone.Behave/1.0.0

例如：以下代码将执行deepCloneAddress，但只执行_currentJob字段的浅拷贝。

public class Person 
{
  [DeepClone(DeepCloneBehavior.Shallow)]
  private Job _currentJob;      

  public string Name { get; set; }

  public Job CurrentJob 
  { 
    get{ return _currentJob; }
    set{ _currentJob = value; }
  }

  public Person Manager { get; set; }
}

public class Address 
{      
  public Person PersonLivingHere { get; set; }
}

Address adr = new Address();
adr.PersonLivingHere = new Person("John");
adr.PersonLivingHere.BestFriend = new Person("James");
adr.PersonLivingHere.CurrentJob = new Job("Programmer");

Address adrClone = adr.Clone();

//RESULT
adr.PersonLivingHere == adrClone.PersonLivingHere //false
adr.PersonLivingHere.Manager == adrClone.PersonLivingHere.Manager //false
adr.PersonLivingHere.CurrentJob == adrClone.PersonLivingHere.CurrentJob //true
adr.PersonLivingHere.CurrentJob.AnyProperty == adrClone.PersonLivingHere.CurrentJob.AnyProperty //true

免责声明：我是上述包裹的作者。

我很惊讶2019年这个问题的顶级答案仍然使用序列化或反射。

序列化是有限的（需要属性、特定构造函数等），而且非常慢

BinaryFormatter需要Serializable属性，JsonConverter需要无参数构造函数或属性，既不能很好地处理只读字段或接口，两者都比需要的慢10-30x。

表达式树

您可以改为使用表达式树或Reflection.Emit仅生成一次克隆代码，然后使用编译后的代码，而不是缓慢的反射或序列化。

我自己遇到了这个问题，但没有找到令人满意的解决方案，因此我决定创建一个包，它可以做到这一点，并且可以处理所有类型的代码，而且速度几乎与自定义编写的代码一样快。

您可以在GitHub上找到该项目：https://github.com/marcelltoth/ObjectCloner

用法

您可以从NuGet安装它。获取ObjectCloner包并将其用作：

var clone = ObjectCloner.DeepClone(original);

或者如果您不介意用扩展名污染对象类型，请获取ObjectCloner.extensions，并写下：

var clone = original.DeepClone();

表演

克隆类层次结构的简单基准测试显示，性能比使用Reflection快约3倍，比Newtonsoft.Json序列化快约12倍，比强烈建议的BinaryFormatter快约36倍。

深度克隆就是复制状态。对于.net state，表示字段。

假设有一个层次结构：

static class RandomHelper
{
    private static readonly Random random = new Random();

    public static int Next(int maxValue) => random.Next(maxValue);
}

class A
{
    private readonly int random = RandomHelper.Next(100);

    public override string ToString() => $"{typeof(A).Name}.{nameof(random)} = {random}";
}

class B : A
{
    private readonly int random = RandomHelper.Next(100);

    public override string ToString() => $"{typeof(B).Name}.{nameof(random)} = {random} {base.ToString()}";
}

class C : B
{
    private readonly int random = RandomHelper.Next(100);

    public override string ToString() => $"{typeof(C).Name}.{nameof(random)} = {random} {base.ToString()}";
}

克隆可以通过以下方式完成：

static class DeepCloneExtension
{
    // consider instance fields, both public and non-public
    private static readonly BindingFlags bindingFlags =
        BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance;

    public static T DeepClone<T>(this T obj) where T : new()
    {
        var type = obj.GetType();
        var result = (T)Activator.CreateInstance(type);

        do
            // copy all fields
            foreach (var field in type.GetFields(bindingFlags))
                field.SetValue(result, field.GetValue(obj));
        // for every level of hierarchy
        while ((type = type.BaseType) != typeof(object));

        return result;
    }
}

演示1：

Console.WriteLine(new C());
Console.WriteLine(new C());

var c = new C();
Console.WriteLine($"{Environment.NewLine}Image: {c}{Environment.NewLine}");

Console.WriteLine(new C());
Console.WriteLine(new C());

Console.WriteLine($"{Environment.NewLine}Clone: {c.DeepClone()}{Environment.NewLine}");

Console.WriteLine(new C());
Console.WriteLine(new C());

结果：

C.random = 92 B.random = 66 A.random = 71
C.random = 36 B.random = 64 A.random = 17

Image: C.random = 96 B.random = 18 A.random = 46

C.random = 60 B.random = 7 A.random = 37
C.random = 78 B.random = 11 A.random = 18

Clone: C.random = 96 B.random = 18 A.random = 46

C.random = 33 B.random = 63 A.random = 38
C.random = 4 B.random = 5 A.random = 79

注意，所有新对象的随机字段都有随机值，但克隆与图像完全匹配

演示2：

class D
{
    public event EventHandler Event;
    public void RaiseEvent() => Event?.Invoke(this, EventArgs.Empty);
}

// ...

var image = new D();
Console.WriteLine($"Created obj #{image.GetHashCode()}");

image.Event += (sender, e) => Console.WriteLine($"Event from obj #{sender.GetHashCode()}");
Console.WriteLine($"Subscribed to event of obj #{image.GetHashCode()}");

image.RaiseEvent();
image.RaiseEvent();

var clone = image.DeepClone();
Console.WriteLine($"obj #{image.GetHashCode()} cloned to obj #{clone.GetHashCode()}");

clone.RaiseEvent();
image.RaiseEvent();

结果：

Created obj #46104728
Subscribed to event of obj #46104728
Event from obj #46104728
Event from obj #46104728
obj #46104728 cloned to obj #12289376
Event from obj #12289376
Event from obj #46104728

注意，事件支持字段也被复制，客户端也订阅了克隆的事件。
