我有几个方法返回不同的泛型列表。

在。net中存在任何类静态方法或将任何列表转换为数据表?我唯一能想到的是使用反射来做到这一点。

如果我有这个:

List<Whatever> whatever = new List<Whatever>();

(这下代码当然不工作,但我想有这样的可能性:

DataTable dt = (DataTable) whatever;

当前回答

我意识到这里已经关门有一段时间了;然而,我有一个解决这个特定问题的解决方案,但需要稍微扭转:列和数据表需要预先定义/已经实例化。然后我只需将类型插入到数据表中。

下面是我所做的一个例子:

public static class Test
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        var dataTable = new System.Data.DataTable(Guid.NewGuid().ToString());

        var columnCode = new DataColumn("Code");
        var columnLength = new DataColumn("Length");
        var columnProduct = new DataColumn("Product");

        dataTable.Columns.AddRange(new DataColumn[]
            {
                columnCode,
                columnLength,
                columnProduct
            });

        var item = new List<SomeClass>();

        item.Select(data => new
        {
            data.Id,
            data.Name,
            data.SomeValue
        }).AddToDataTable(dataTable);
    }
}

static class Extensions
{
    public static void AddToDataTable<T>(this IEnumerable<T> enumerable, System.Data.DataTable table)
    {
        if (enumerable.FirstOrDefault() == null)
        {
            table.Rows.Add(new[] {string.Empty});
            return;
        }

        var properties = enumerable.FirstOrDefault().GetType().GetProperties();

        foreach (var item in enumerable)
        {
            var row = table.NewRow();
            foreach (var property in properties)
            {
                row[property.Name] = item.GetType().InvokeMember(property.Name, BindingFlags.GetProperty, null, item, null);
            }
            table.Rows.Add(row);
        }
    }
}

 Dim counties As New List(Of County)
 Dim dtCounties As DataTable
 dtCounties = _combinedRefRepository.Get_Counties()
 If dtCounties.Rows.Count <> 0 Then
    For Each row As DataRow In dtCounties.Rows
      Dim county As New County
      county.CountyId = row.Item(0).ToString()
      county.CountyName = row.Item(1).ToString().ToUpper()
      counties.Add(county)
    Next
    dtCounties.Dispose()
 End If

如果你使用VB。NET,那么这个类就会完成这项工作。

Imports System.Reflection
''' <summary>
''' Convert any List(Of T) to a DataTable with correct column types and converts Nullable Type values to DBNull
''' </summary>

Public Class ConvertListToDataset

    Public Function ListToDataset(Of T)(ByVal list As IList(Of T)) As DataTable

        Dim dt As New DataTable()
        '/* Create the DataTable columns */
        For Each pi As PropertyInfo In GetType(T).GetProperties()
            If pi.PropertyType.IsValueType Then
                Debug.Print(pi.Name)
            End If
            If IsNothing(Nullable.GetUnderlyingType(pi.PropertyType)) Then
                dt.Columns.Add(pi.Name, pi.PropertyType)
            Else
                dt.Columns.Add(pi.Name, Nullable.GetUnderlyingType(pi.PropertyType))
            End If
        Next

        '/* Populate the DataTable with the values in the Items in List */
        For Each item As T In list
            Dim dr As DataRow = dt.NewRow()
            For Each pi As PropertyInfo In GetType(T).GetProperties()
                dr(pi.Name) = IIf(IsNothing(pi.GetValue(item)), DBNull.Value, pi.GetValue(item))
            Next
            dt.Rows.Add(dr)
        Next
        Return dt

    End Function

End Class

将通用列表转换为数据表

使用Newtonsoft.Json;

public DataTable GenericToDataTable(IList<T> list)
{
    var json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(list);
    DataTable dt = (DataTable)JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(json, (typeof(DataTable)));
    return dt;
}

对Marc的答案做了一个小更改,使其与List<string> to data table等值类型一起工作:

public static DataTable ListToDataTable<T>(IList<T> data)
{
    DataTable table = new DataTable();

    //special handling for value types and string
    if (typeof(T).IsValueType || typeof(T).Equals(typeof(string)))
    {

        DataColumn dc = new DataColumn("Value", typeof(T));
        table.Columns.Add(dc);
        foreach (T item in data)
        {
            DataRow dr = table.NewRow();
            dr[0] = item;
            table.Rows.Add(dr);
        }
    }
    else
    {
        PropertyDescriptorCollection properties = TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(typeof(T));
        foreach (PropertyDescriptor prop in properties)
        {
            table.Columns.Add(prop.Name, Nullable.GetUnderlyingType(prop.PropertyType) ?? prop.PropertyType);
        }
        foreach (T item in data)
        {
            DataRow row = table.NewRow();
            foreach (PropertyDescriptor prop in properties)
            {
                try
                {
                    row[prop.Name] = prop.GetValue(item) ?? DBNull.Value;
                }
                catch (Exception ex)
                {
                    row[prop.Name] = DBNull.Value;
                }
            }
            table.Rows.Add(row);
        }
    }
    return table;
}

您可以尝试以下内容

public static DataTable GetDataTableFromObjects(object[] objects)
{
    if (objects != null && objects.Length > 0)
    {
        Type t = objects[0].GetType();
        DataTable dt = new DataTable(t.Name);
        foreach (PropertyInfo pi in t.GetProperties())
        {
            dt.Columns.Add(new DataColumn(pi.Name));
        }
        foreach (var o in objects)
        {
            DataRow dr = dt.NewRow();
            foreach (DataColumn dc in dt.Columns)
            {
                dr[dc.ColumnName] = o.GetType().GetProperty(dc.ColumnName).GetValue(o, null);
            }
            dt.Rows.Add(dr);
        }
        return dt;
    }
    return null;
}
