在c#中合并2个或更多字典(Dictionary<TKey, TValue>)的最佳方法是什么? (像LINQ这样的3.0特性就可以了)。

我正在考虑一个方法签名,如下所示:

public static Dictionary<TKey,TValue>
                 Merge<TKey,TValue>(Dictionary<TKey,TValue>[] dictionaries);

or

public static Dictionary<TKey,TValue>
                 Merge<TKey,TValue>(IEnumerable<Dictionary<TKey,TValue>> dictionaries);

关于重复键的处理:在发生冲突的情况下,保存到字典中的值并不重要,只要它是一致的。

使用扩展方法合并。当存在重复的键时,它不会抛出异常,而是用第二个字典中的键替换这些键。

internal static class DictionaryExtensions
{
    public static Dictionary<T1, T2> Merge<T1, T2>(this Dictionary<T1, T2> first, Dictionary<T1, T2> second)
    {
        if (first == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("first");
        if (second == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("second");

        var merged = new Dictionary<T1, T2>();
        first.ToList().ForEach(kv => merged[kv.Key] = kv.Value);
        second.ToList().ForEach(kv => merged[kv.Key] = kv.Value);

        return merged;
    }
}

用法:

Dictionary<string, string> merged = first.Merge(second);

其他回答

or :

public static IDictionary<TKey, TValue> Merge<TKey, TValue>( IDictionary<TKey, TValue> x, IDictionary<TKey, TValue> y)
    {
        return x
            .Except(x.Join(y, z => z.Key, z => z.Key, (a, b) => a))
            .Concat(y)
            .ToDictionary(z => z.Key, z => z.Value);
    }

结果是一个联合,对于重复的条目,“y”胜出。

试试

namespace Extensions
{
    public static class DictionaryExtensions
    {
        public static Dictionary<T, Y> MergeWith<T, Y>(this Dictionary<T, Y> dictA,
            Dictionary<T, Y> dictB)
        {
            foreach (var item in dictB)
            {
                if (dictA.ContainsKey(item.Key))
                    dictA[item.Key] = item.Value;
                else
                    dictA.Add(item.Key, item.Value);
            }
            return dictA;
        }
    }
}

当你想合并两个字典时

    var d1 = new Dictionary<string, string>();
    var d2 = new Dictionary<string, string>();
    d1.MergeWith(d2);

如果有多个键(“右”键取代“左”键),这不会爆炸,可以合并一些字典(如果需要),并保留类型(限制它需要一个有意义的默认公共构造函数):

public static class DictionaryExtensions
{
    // Works in C#3/VS2008:
    // Returns a new dictionary of this ... others merged leftward.
    // Keeps the type of 'this', which must be default-instantiable.
    // Example: 
    //   result = map.MergeLeft(other1, other2, ...)
    public static T MergeLeft<T,K,V>(this T me, params IDictionary<K,V>[] others)
        where T : IDictionary<K,V>, new()
    {
        T newMap = new T();
        foreach (IDictionary<K,V> src in
            (new List<IDictionary<K,V>> { me }).Concat(others)) {
            // ^-- echk. Not quite there type-system.
            foreach (KeyValuePair<K,V> p in src) {
                newMap[p.Key] = p.Value;
            }
        }
        return newMap;
    }

}

这个聚会现在几乎已经死了,但是user166390的“改进”版本已经进入了我的扩展库。 除了一些细节之外,我还添加了一个委托来计算合并的值。

/// <summary>
/// Merges a dictionary against an array of other dictionaries.
/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="TResult">The type of the resulting dictionary.</typeparam>
/// <typeparam name="TKey">The type of the key in the resulting dictionary.</typeparam>
/// <typeparam name="TValue">The type of the value in the resulting dictionary.</typeparam>
/// <param name="source">The source dictionary.</param>
/// <param name="mergeBehavior">A delegate returning the merged value. (Parameters in order: The current key, The current value, The previous value)</param>
/// <param name="mergers">Dictionaries to merge against.</param>
/// <returns>The merged dictionary.</returns>
public static TResult MergeLeft<TResult, TKey, TValue>(
    this TResult source,
    Func<TKey, TValue, TValue, TValue> mergeBehavior,
    params IDictionary<TKey, TValue>[] mergers)
    where TResult : IDictionary<TKey, TValue>, new()
{
    var result = new TResult();
    var sources = new List<IDictionary<TKey, TValue>> { source }
        .Concat(mergers);

    foreach (var kv in sources.SelectMany(src => src))
    {
        TValue previousValue;
        result.TryGetValue(kv.Key, out previousValue);
        result[kv.Key] = mergeBehavior(kv.Key, kv.Value, previousValue);
    }

    return result;
}

我来晚了,可能错过了一些东西,但如果没有重复的键,或者正如OP所说的那样,“如果发生碰撞,只要值是一致的,保存到字典中的值并不重要”,那么这个(将D2合并到D1)有什么问题?

foreach (KeyValuePair<string,int> item in D2)
{
    D1[item.Key] = item.Value;
}

这看起来很简单,也许太简单了,我想知道我是否遗漏了什么。这是我在一些代码中使用的,我知道没有重复的键。不过,我仍在测试中,所以我现在就想知道我是否忽略了一些东西,而不是以后才发现。
