这是一个完全可行的实现，包括Unicode和ASCII不可打印字符的转义。它没有像Hallgrim的答案那样插入“+”符号。

static string ToLiteral(string input) {
    StringBuilder literal = new StringBuilder(input.Length + 2);
    literal.Append("\"");
    foreach (var c in input) {
        switch (c) {
            case '\"': literal.Append("\\\""); break;
            case '\\': literal.Append(@"\\"); break;
            case '\0': literal.Append(@"\0"); break;
            case '\a': literal.Append(@"\a"); break;
            case '\b': literal.Append(@"\b"); break;
            case '\f': literal.Append(@"\f"); break;
            case '\n': literal.Append(@"\n"); break;
            case '\r': literal.Append(@"\r"); break;
            case '\t': literal.Append(@"\t"); break;
            case '\v': literal.Append(@"\v"); break;
            default:
                // ASCII printable character
                if (c >= 0x20 && c <= 0x7e) {
                    literal.Append(c);
                // As UTF16 escaped character
                } else {
                    literal.Append(@"\u");
                    literal.Append(((int)c).ToString("x4"));
                }
                break;
        }
    }
    literal.Append("\"");
    return literal.ToString();
}

注意，这也转义了所有Unicode字符。如果你的环境支持它们，你可以改变这一部分，只转义控制字符:

// UTF16 control characters
} else if (Char.GetUnicodeCategory(c) == UnicodeCategory.Control) {
    literal.Append(@"\u");
    literal.Append(((int)c).ToString("x4"));
} else {
    literal.Append(c);
}

我试图将ToVerbatim添加到Hallgrim公认的答案中:

private static string ToLiteral(string input)
{
    using (var writer = new StringWriter())
    {
        using (var provider = CodeDomProvider.CreateProvider("CSharp"))
        {
            provider.GenerateCodeFromExpression(new CodePrimitiveExpression(input), writer, new CodeGeneratorOptions { IndentString = "\t" });
            var literal = writer.ToString();
            literal = literal.Replace(string.Format("\" +{0}\t\"", Environment.NewLine), "");
            return literal;
        }
    }
}

private static string ToVerbatim(string input)
{
    string literal = ToLiteral(input);
    string verbatim = "@" + literal.Replace(@"\r\n", Environment.NewLine);
    return verbatim;
}

public static class StringHelpers
{
    private static Dictionary<string, string> escapeMapping = new Dictionary<string, string>()
    {
        {"\"", @"\\\"""},
        {"\\\\", @"\\"},
        {"\a", @"\a"},
        {"\b", @"\b"},
        {"\f", @"\f"},
        {"\n", @"\n"},
        {"\r", @"\r"},
        {"\t", @"\t"},
        {"\v", @"\v"},
        {"\0", @"\0"},
    };

    private static Regex escapeRegex = new Regex(string.Join("|", escapeMapping.Keys.ToArray()));

    public static string Escape(this string s)
    {
        return escapeRegex.Replace(s, EscapeMatchEval);
    }

    private static string EscapeMatchEval(Match m)
    {
        if (escapeMapping.ContainsKey(m.Value))
        {
            return escapeMapping[m.Value];
        }
        return escapeMapping[Regex.Escape(m.Value)];
    }
}

代码:

string someString1 = "\tHello\r\n\tWorld!\r\n";
string someString2 = @"\tHello\r\n\tWorld!\r\n";

Console.WriteLine(someString1);
Console.WriteLine(someString2);

输出:

    Hello
    World!

\tHello\r\n\tWorld!\r\n

如果JSON约定对于你想要转义的未转义字符串足够，并且你已经使用了JSON。NET (Newtonsoft.Json)在你的项目中(它有一个相当大的开销)，你可以像下面这样使用这个包:

using System;
using Newtonsoft.Json;

public class Program
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        Console.WriteLine(ToLiteral(@"abc\n123"));
    }

    private static string ToLiteral(string input)
    {
        return JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<string>("\"" + input + "\"");
    }
}

这是一个完全可行的实现，包括Unicode和ASCII不可打印字符的转义。它没有像Hallgrim的答案那样插入“+”符号。

static string ToLiteral(string input) {
    StringBuilder literal = new StringBuilder(input.Length + 2);
    literal.Append("\"");
    foreach (var c in input) {
        switch (c) {
            case '\"': literal.Append("\\\""); break;
            case '\\': literal.Append(@"\\"); break;
            case '\0': literal.Append(@"\0"); break;
            case '\a': literal.Append(@"\a"); break;
            case '\b': literal.Append(@"\b"); break;
            case '\f': literal.Append(@"\f"); break;
            case '\n': literal.Append(@"\n"); break;
            case '\r': literal.Append(@"\r"); break;
            case '\t': literal.Append(@"\t"); break;
            case '\v': literal.Append(@"\v"); break;
            default:
                // ASCII printable character
                if (c >= 0x20 && c <= 0x7e) {
                    literal.Append(c);
                // As UTF16 escaped character
                } else {
                    literal.Append(@"\u");
                    literal.Append(((int)c).ToString("x4"));
                }
                break;
        }
    }
    literal.Append("\"");
    return literal.ToString();
}

注意，这也转义了所有Unicode字符。如果你的环境支持它们，你可以改变这一部分，只转义控制字符:

// UTF16 control characters
} else if (Char.GetUnicodeCategory(c) == UnicodeCategory.Control) {
    literal.Append(@"\u");
    literal.Append(((int)c).ToString("x4"));
} else {
    literal.Append(c);
}
