我想做一些事情,比如:

MyObject myObj = GetMyObj(); // Create and fill a new object
MyObject newObj = myObj.Clone();

然后对未反映在原始对象中的新对象进行更改。

我通常不需要这个功能,所以当有必要时,我会创建一个新对象,然后单独复制每个属性,但这总是让我觉得有更好或更优雅的方法来处理这种情况。

如何克隆或深度复制对象,以便在原始对象中不反映任何更改的情况下修改克隆的对象?


当前回答

虽然一种方法是实现ICloneable接口(在这里描述,所以我不会反悔),但这里有一个很好的深度克隆对象复制器,我不久前在代码项目中找到了它,并将其合并到我们的代码中。如其他地方所述,它要求您的对象是可序列化的。

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Runtime.Serialization;
using System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary;

/// <summary>
/// Reference Article http://www.codeproject.com/KB/tips/SerializedObjectCloner.aspx
/// Provides a method for performing a deep copy of an object.
/// Binary Serialization is used to perform the copy.
/// </summary>
public static class ObjectCopier
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Perform a deep copy of the object via serialization.
    /// </summary>
    /// <typeparam name="T">The type of object being copied.</typeparam>
    /// <param name="source">The object instance to copy.</param>
    /// <returns>A deep copy of the object.</returns>
    public static T Clone<T>(T source)
    {
        if (!typeof(T).IsSerializable)
        {
            throw new ArgumentException("The type must be serializable.", nameof(source));
        }

        // Don't serialize a null object, simply return the default for that object
        if (ReferenceEquals(source, null)) return default;

        using var Stream stream = new MemoryStream();
        IFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter();
        formatter.Serialize(stream, source);
        stream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
        return (T)formatter.Deserialize(stream);
    }
}

其思想是它序列化对象,然后将其反序列化为新对象。好处是,当对象变得太复杂时,您不必担心克隆任何东西。

如果您希望使用C#3.0的新扩展方法,请将该方法更改为具有以下签名:

public static T Clone<T>(this T source)
{
   // ...
}

现在,方法调用简单地变成objectBeingCloned.Clone();。

EDIT(2015年1月10日)我想我会重新考虑这个问题,要说我最近开始使用(Newtonsoft)Json来做这个,它应该更轻,并避免[Serializable]标签的开销。(NB@atconway在评论中指出,私有成员不是使用JSON方法克隆的)

/// <summary>
/// Perform a deep Copy of the object, using Json as a serialization method. NOTE: Private members are not cloned using this method.
/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="T">The type of object being copied.</typeparam>
/// <param name="source">The object instance to copy.</param>
/// <returns>The copied object.</returns>
public static T CloneJson<T>(this T source)
{            
    // Don't serialize a null object, simply return the default for that object
    if (ReferenceEquals(source, null)) return default;

    // initialize inner objects individually
    // for example in default constructor some list property initialized with some values,
    // but in 'source' these items are cleaned -
    // without ObjectCreationHandling.Replace default constructor values will be added to result
    var deserializeSettings = new JsonSerializerSettings {ObjectCreationHandling = ObjectCreationHandling.Replace};

    return JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<T>(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(source), deserializeSettings);
}

其他回答

复制所有公共财产的简单扩展方法。适用于任何对象,不要求类为[Serializable]。可以扩展到其他访问级别。

public static void CopyTo( this object S, object T )
{
    foreach( var pS in S.GetType().GetProperties() )
    {
        foreach( var pT in T.GetType().GetProperties() )
        {
            if( pT.Name != pS.Name ) continue;
            ( pT.GetSetMethod() ).Invoke( T, new object[] 
            { pS.GetGetMethod().Invoke( S, null ) } );
        }
    };
}

代码生成器

我们已经看到了很多想法,从序列化到手动实现再到反射,我想使用CGbR代码生成器提出一种完全不同的方法。生成克隆方法具有内存和CPU效率,因此比标准DataContractSerializer快300倍。

你只需要一个带有ICloneable的部分类定义,生成器就可以完成剩下的工作:

public partial class Root : ICloneable
{
    public Root(int number)
    {
        _number = number;
    }
    private int _number;

    public Partial[] Partials { get; set; }

    public IList<ulong> Numbers { get; set; }

    public object Clone()
    {
        return Clone(true);
    }

    private Root()
    {
    }
} 

public partial class Root
{
    public Root Clone(bool deep)
    {
        var copy = new Root();
        // All value types can be simply copied
        copy._number = _number; 
        if (deep)
        {
            // In a deep clone the references are cloned 
            var tempPartials = new Partial[Partials.Length];
            for (var i = 0; i < Partials.Length; i++)
            {
                var value = Partials[i];
                value = value.Clone(true);
                tempPartials[i] = value;
            }
            copy.Partials = tempPartials;
            var tempNumbers = new List<ulong>(Numbers.Count);
            for (var i = 0; i < Numbers.Count; i++)
            {
                var value = Numbers[i];
                tempNumbers.Add(value);
            }
            copy.Numbers = tempNumbers;
        }
        else
        {
            // In a shallow clone only references are copied
            copy.Partials = Partials; 
            copy.Numbers = Numbers; 
        }
        return copy;
    }
}

注意:最新版本有更多的空检查,但为了更好地理解,我省略了它们。

保持简单,并使用AutoMapper,正如其他人提到的,这是一个简单的小库,可以将一个对象映射到另一个对象。。。要将一个对象复制到另一个具有相同类型的对象,只需要三行代码:

MyType source = new MyType();
Mapper.CreateMap<MyType, MyType>();
MyType target = Mapper.Map<MyType, MyType>(source);

目标对象现在是源对象的副本。不够简单?创建扩展方法以在解决方案中的任何地方使用:

public static T Copy<T>(this T source)
{
    T copy = default(T);
    Mapper.CreateMap<T, T>();
    copy = Mapper.Map<T, T>(source);
    return copy;
}

扩展方法可以如下使用:

MyType copy = source.Copy();

我已经创建了一个可接受答案的版本,该版本同时适用于“[Serializable]”和“[DataContract]”。我写它已经有一段时间了,但如果我没有记错,[DataContract]需要一个不同的序列化程序。

需要System、System.IO、System.Runtime.Serialization、System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary、System.Xml;

我知道,这个问题和答案在这里停留了一段时间,下面不是很好的答案,而是观察,最近我在检查是否确实没有克隆隐私(如果没有,我就不会是我自己了;)时,我很高兴地复制了粘贴的@johnc更新的答案。

我简单地制作了自己的扩展方法(这几乎是上述答案的复制粘贴):

public static class CloneThroughJsonExtension
{
    private static readonly JsonSerializerSettings DeserializeSettings = new JsonSerializerSettings { ObjectCreationHandling = ObjectCreationHandling.Replace };

    public static T CloneThroughJson<T>(this T source)
    {
        return ReferenceEquals(source, null) ? default(T) : JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<T>(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(source), DeserializeSettings);
    }
}

并天真地放弃了这样的课程(事实上,有更多这样的课程,但它们是无关的):

public class WhatTheHeck
{
    public string PrivateSet { get; private set; } // matches ctor param name

    public string GetOnly { get; } // matches ctor param name

    private readonly string _indirectField;
    public string Indirect => $"Inception of: {_indirectField} "; // matches ctor param name
    public string RealIndirectFieldVaule => _indirectField;

    public WhatTheHeck(string privateSet, string getOnly, string indirect)
    {
        PrivateSet = privateSet;
        GetOnly = getOnly;
        _indirectField = indirect;
    }
}

代码如下:

var clone = new WhatTheHeck("Private-Set-Prop cloned!", "Get-Only-Prop cloned!", "Indirect-Field clonned!").CloneThroughJson();
Console.WriteLine($"1. {clone.PrivateSet}");
Console.WriteLine($"2. {clone.GetOnly}");
Console.WriteLine($"3.1. {clone.Indirect}");
Console.WriteLine($"3.2. {clone.RealIndirectFieldVaule}");

结果是:

1. Private-Set-Prop cloned!
2. Get-Only-Prop cloned!
3.1. Inception of: Inception of: Indirect-Field cloned!
3.2. Inception of: Indirect-Field cloned!

我整个人都在想:什么……所以我抓起Newtonsoft.Json Github repo,开始挖掘。结果是:当反序列化一个恰好只有一个ctor且其参数名匹配(不区分大小写)公共属性名的类型时,它们将作为这些参数传递给ctor。在这里和这里的代码中可以找到一些线索。

我知道这不是很常见的情况,示例代码有点滥用,但嘿!当我检查灌木丛中是否有龙在等着跳出来咬我的屁股时,我大吃一惊;)
