类似于上面的字符串As和Is，但对所有对象都是全局的。

这很简单，但我经常使用这些方法来缓解拳击中的parens爆炸。

public static class ExtensionMethods_Object
{
    [DebuggerStepThrough()]
    public static bool Is<T>(this object item) where T : class
    {
        return item is T;
    }

    [DebuggerStepThrough()]
    public static bool IsNot<T>(this object item) where T : class
    {
        return !(item.Is<T>());
    }

    [DebuggerStepThrough()]
    public static T As<T>(this object item) where T : class
    {
        return item as T;
    }
}

我很高兴这段代码能在codeplex上使用，事实上它已经在使用了。

下面是我用来减少提取单个属性的一些方法:

public static T GetAttribute<T>(this ICustomAttributeProvider provider, bool inherit = false, int index = 0) where T : Attribute
{
    return provider.GetAttribute(typeof(T), inherit, index) as T;
}

public static Attribute GetAttribute(this ICustomAttributeProvider provider, Type type, bool inherit = false, int index = 0)
{
    bool exists = provider.IsDefined(type, inherit);
    if (!exists)
    {
        return null;
    }

    object[] attributes = provider.GetCustomAttributes(type, inherit);
    if (attributes != null && attributes.Length != 0)
    {
        return attributes[index] as Attribute;
    }
    else
    {
        return null;
    }
}

用法(枚举描述hack的实现):

public static string GetDescription(this Enum value)
{
    var fieldInfo = value.GetType().GetField(value.ToString());
    var attribute = fieldInfo.GetAttribute<DescriptionAttribute>();
    return attribute != null ? attribute.Description : null;
}

请随意将其包含在CodePlex项目中!

每n个字符换行一个字符串。

public static string WrapAt(this string str, int WrapPos)
{
    if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(str))
        throw new ArgumentNullException("str", "Cannot wrap a null string");
    str = str.Replace("\r", "").Replace("\n", "");

    if (str.Length <= WrapPos)
        return str;

    for (int i = str.Length; i >= 0; i--)
        if (i % WrapPos == 0 && i > 0 && i != str.Length)
            str = str.Insert(i, "\r\n");
    return str;
}

到目前为止，我刚刚浏览了所有4页，我很惊讶，我没有看到这种方式来缩短检查InvokeRequired:

using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;

/// <summary>
/// Extension methods acting on Control objects.
/// </summary>
internal static class ControlExtensionMethods
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Invokes the given action on the given control's UI thread, if invocation is needed.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="control">Control on whose UI thread to possibly invoke.</param>
    /// <param name="action">Action to be invoked on the given control.</param>
    public static void MaybeInvoke(this Control control, Action action)
    {
        if (control != null && control.InvokeRequired)
        {
            control.Invoke(action);
        }
        else
        {
            action();
        }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Maybe Invoke a Func that returns a value.
    /// </summary>
    /// <typeparam name="T">Return type of func.</typeparam>
    /// <param name="control">Control on which to maybe invoke.</param>
    /// <param name="func">Function returning a value, to invoke.</param>
    /// <returns>The result of the call to func.</returns>
    public static T MaybeInvoke<T>(this Control control, Func<T> func)
    {
        if (control != null && control.InvokeRequired)
        {
            return (T)(control.Invoke(func));
        }
        else
        {
            return func();
        }
    }
}

用法:

myForm.MaybeInvoke(() => this.Text = "Hello world");

// Sometimes the control might be null, but that's okay.
var dialogResult = this.Parent.MaybeInvoke(() => MessageBox.Show(this, "Yes or no?", "Choice", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo));

将List转换为数据表

public static class DataTableConverter
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Convert a List{T} to a DataTable.
    /// </summary>
    public static DataTable ToDataTable<T>(this IList<T> items)
    {
        var tb = new DataTable(typeof(T).Name);

        PropertyInfo[] props = typeof(T).GetProperties(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance);

        foreach (PropertyInfo prop in props)
        {
            Type t = GetCoreType(prop.PropertyType);
            tb.Columns.Add(prop.Name, t);
        }

        foreach (T item in items)
        {
            var values = new object[props.Length];

            for (int i = 0; i < props.Length; i++)
            {
                values[i] = props[i].GetValue(item, null);
            }

            tb.Rows.Add(values);
        }

        return tb;
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Determine of specified type is nullable
    /// </summary>
    public static bool IsNullable(Type t)
    {
        return !t.IsValueType || (t.IsGenericType && t.GetGenericTypeDefinition() == typeof(Nullable<>));
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Return underlying type if type is Nullable otherwise return the type
    /// </summary>
    public static Type GetCoreType(Type t)
    {
        if (t != null && IsNullable(t))
        {
            if (!t.IsValueType)
            {
                return t;
            }
            else
            {
                return Nullable.GetUnderlyingType(t);
            }
        }
        else
        {
            return t;
        }
    }
}

用法:

    IList<MyClass> myClassList = new List<MyClass>();
    DataTable myClassDataTable = myClassList.ToDataTable();

而与MVC工作，有很多if语句，我只关心或真或假，打印null，或字符串。在另一种情况下，我想到了:

public static TResult WhenTrue<TResult>(this Boolean value, Func<TResult> expression)
{
    return value ? expression() : default(TResult);
}

public static TResult WhenTrue<TResult>(this Boolean value, TResult content)
{
    return value ? content : default(TResult);
}

public static TResult WhenFalse<TResult>(this Boolean value, Func<TResult> expression)
{
    return !value ? expression() : default(TResult);
}

public static TResult WhenFalse<TResult>(this Boolean value, TResult content)
{
    return !value ? content : default(TResult);
}

它允许我改变<%= (someBool) ?print y:字符串。将%>空为<%= someBool。WhenTrue("print y") %>。

我只在我的视图中使用它，在这里我混合了代码和HTML，在代码文件中编写“更长的”版本更清楚。
