对于Winform控件:

/// <summary>
/// Returns whether the function is being executed during design time in Visual Studio.
/// </summary>
public static bool IsDesignTime(this Control control)
{
    if (LicenseManager.UsageMode == LicenseUsageMode.Designtime)
    {
        return true;
    }

    if (control.Site != null && control.Site.DesignMode)
    {
        return true;
    }

    var parent = control.Parent;
    while (parent != null)
    {
        if (parent.Site != null && parent.Site.DesignMode)
        {
            return true;
        }
        parent = parent.Parent;
    }
    return false;
}

/// <summary>
/// Sets the DropDownWidth to ensure that no item's text is cut off.
/// </summary>
public static void SetDropDownWidth(this ComboBox comboBox)
{
    var g = comboBox.CreateGraphics();
    var font = comboBox.Font;
    float maxWidth = 0;

    foreach (var item in comboBox.Items)
    {
        maxWidth = Math.Max(maxWidth, g.MeasureString(item.ToString(), font).Width);
    }

    if (comboBox.Items.Count > comboBox.MaxDropDownItems)
    {
        maxWidth += SystemInformation.VerticalScrollBarWidth;
    }

    comboBox.DropDownWidth = Math.Max(comboBox.Width, Convert.ToInt32(maxWidth));
}

IsDesignTime用法:

public class SomeForm : Form
{
    public SomeForm()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        if (this.IsDesignTime())
        {
            return;
        }

        // Do something that makes the visual studio crash or hang if we're in design time,
        // but any other time executes just fine
    }
}

SetDropdownWidth用法:

ComboBox cbo = new ComboBox { Width = 50 };
cbo.Items.Add("Short");
cbo.Items.Add("A little longer");
cbo.Items.Add("Holy cow, this is a really, really long item. How in the world will it fit?");
cbo.SetDropDownWidth();

我忘了说，请随意在Codeplex上使用这些…

灵感来自弦。IsNullOrEmpty

要验证给定的List为空或空

public static bool IsNullOrEmpty<TSource>(this List<TSource> src)
{            
    return (src == null || src.Count == 0);
}

这个是验证给定的两个文件和属性

public static bool Compare(this FileInfo f1, FileInfo f2, string propertyName)
{
    try
    {
        PropertyInfo p1 = f1.GetType().GetProperty(propertyName);
        PropertyInfo p2 = f2.GetType().GetProperty(propertyName);

        if (p1.GetValue(f1, null) == p2.GetValue(f1, null))
            return true;
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        return false;
    }
    return false;
}

像这样使用它

FileInfo fo = new FileInfo("c:\\netlog.txt");
FileInfo f1 = new FileInfo("c:\\regkey.txt");

fo.compare(f1, "CreationTime");

The Substring method on the string class has always felt inadequate to me. Usually when you do a substring, you know the character(s) from where you want to start, and the charachter(s) where you want to end. Thus, I've always felt that have to specify length as the second parameter is stupid. Therefore, I've written my own extension methods. One that takes a startIndex and an endIndex. And one, that takes a startText (string) and endText (string) so you can just specify the text from where to start the substring, and the text for where to end it.

注意:我不能将方法命名为。net中的Substring，因为我的第一个重载采用了与。net重载中的一个相同的参数类型。因此我将它们命名为Subsetstring。请随意添加到CodePlex…

public static class StringExtensions
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Returns a Subset string starting at the specified start index and ending and the specified end
    /// index.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="s">The string to retrieve the subset from.</param>
    /// <param name="startIndex">The specified start index for the subset.</param>
    /// <param name="endIndex">The specified end index for the subset.</param>
    /// <returns>A Subset string starting at the specified start index and ending and the specified end
    /// index.</returns>
    public static string Subsetstring(this string s, int startIndex, int endIndex)
    {
        if (startIndex > endIndex)
        {
            throw new InvalidOperationException("End Index must be after Start Index.");
        }

        if (startIndex < 0)
        {
            throw new InvalidOperationException("Start Index must be a positive number.");
        }

        if(endIndex <0)
        {
            throw new InvalidOperationException("End Index must be a positive number.");
        }

        return s.Substring(startIndex, (endIndex - startIndex));
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Finds the specified Start Text and the End Text in this string instance, and returns a string
    /// containing all the text starting from startText, to the begining of endText. (endText is not
    /// included.)
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="s">The string to retrieve the subset from.</param>
    /// <param name="startText">The Start Text to begin the Subset from.</param>
    /// <param name="endText">The End Text to where the Subset goes to.</param>
    /// <param name="ignoreCase">Whether or not to ignore case when comparing startText/endText to the string.</param>
    /// <returns>A string containing all the text starting from startText, to the begining of endText.</returns>
    public static string Subsetstring(this string s, string startText, string endText, bool ignoreCase)
    {
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(startText) || string.IsNullOrEmpty(endText))
        {
            throw new ArgumentException("Start Text and End Text cannot be empty.");
        }
        string temp = s;
        if (ignoreCase)
        {
            temp = s.ToUpperInvariant();
            startText = startText.ToUpperInvariant();
            endText = endText.ToUpperInvariant();
        }
        int start = temp.IndexOf(startText);
        int end = temp.IndexOf(endText, start);
        return Subsetstring(s, start, end);
    }
}

用法:

string s = "This is a tester for my cool extension method!!";
       s = s.Subsetstring("tester", "cool",true);

输出:"test for my "

将字符串的长度减少到toLength，并在缩短的字符串的末尾添加一个额外的字符串，以表示字符串被缩短(默认值…)

public static string Shorten(this string str, int toLength, string cutOffReplacement = " ...")
{
    if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(str) || str.Length <= toLength)
        return str;
    else
        return str.Remove(toLength) + cutOffReplacement;
}
