如果您使用财政年度，则有两个有用的扩展

/// <summary>
/// Returns the fiscal year for the passed in date
/// </summary>
/// <param name="value">the date</param>
/// <returns>the fiscal year</returns>
public static int FiscalYear(this DateTime value)
{
  int ret = value.Year;
  if (value.Month >= 7) ret++;
  return ret;
}

/// <summary>
/// Returns the fiscal year for the passed in date
/// </summary>
/// <param name="value">the date</param>
/// <returns>the fiscal year</returns>
public static string FiscalYearString(this DateTime value)
{
  int fy = FiscalYear(value);
  return "{0}/{1}".Format(fy - 1, fy);
}

还有一点:

public enum ParseFailBehavior
{
   ReturnNull,
   ReturnDefault,
   ThrowException
}

public static T? ParseNullableEnum<T>(this string theValue, ParseFailBehavior desiredBehavior = ParseFailBehavior.ReturnNull) where T:struct
{
   T output;
   T? result = Enum.TryParse<T>(theValue, out output) 
      ? (T?)output
      : desiredBehavior == ParseFailBehavior.ReturnDefault
         ? (T?)default(T)
         : null;

   if(result == null && desiredBehavior == ParseFailBehavior.ThrowException)
      throw new ArgumentException("Parse Failed for value {0} of enum type {1}".
         FormatWith(theValue, typeof(T).Name));       
}

这个版本需要。net 4.0;在3.5中你没有TryParse和可选参数;你就只能使用enumel . parse()，你必须尝试捕获它。它在3.5中仍然是完全可行的(而且更有用，因为enumel . parse()是oogly的，也是你唯一的其他选择):

public static T? ParseNummableEnum<T>(this string theValue)
{
    return theValue.ParseNullableEnum<T>(ParseFailBehavior.ReturnNull);
}

public static T? ParseNullableEnum<T>(this string theValue, 
    ParseFailBehavior desiredBehavior) where T:struct
{
    try
    {
        return (T?) Enum.Parse(typeof (T), theValue);
    }
    catch (Exception)
    {
        if(desiredBehavior == ParseFailBehavior.ThrowException) throw;
    }

    return desiredBehavior == ParseFailBehavior.ReturnDefault ? (T?)default(T) : null;
}

用法:

//returns null if OptionOne isn't an enum constant
var myEnum = "OptionOne".ParseNullableEnum<OptionEnum>(); 

//guarantees a return value IF the enum has a "zero" constant value (generally a good practice)
var myEnum = "OptionTwo".ParseNullableEnum<OptionEnum>(ParseFailBehavior.ReturnDefault).Value 

public static class StringHelper
{
    public static String F(this String str, params object[] args)
    {
        return String.Format(str, args);
    }
}

使用:

"Say {0}".F("Hello");

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;
}

如果有Unix时间戳和ISO 8601格式的日期和时间就太好了。大量用于网站和休息服务。

我在我的Facebook图书馆里使用它。你可以找到源代码http://github.com/prabirshrestha/FacebookSharp/blob/master/src/FacebookSharp.Core/FacebookUtils/DateUtils.cs

private static readonly DateTime EPOCH = DateTime.SpecifyKind(new DateTime(1970, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0),DateTimeKind.Utc);

public static DateTime FromUnixTimestamp(long timestamp)
{
    return EPOCH.AddSeconds(timestamp);
}

public static long ToUnixTimestamp(DateTime date)
{
    TimeSpan diff = date.ToUniversalTime() - EPOCH;
    return (long)diff.TotalSeconds;
}

public static DateTime FromIso8601FormattedDateTime(string iso8601DateTime){
    return DateTime.ParseExact(iso8601DateTime, "o", System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
}

public static string ToIso8601FormattedDateTime(DateTime dateTime)
{
    return dateTime.ToString("o");
}

请随意在codeplex项目中使用。

这些扩展方法异步调用事件。他们受到了StackOverflow的启发。

/// <summary>
/// Invoke an event asynchronously. Each subscriber to the event will be invoked on a separate thread.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="someEvent">The event to be invoked asynchronously.</param>
/// <param name="sender">The sender of the event.</param>
/// <param name="args">The args of the event.</param>
/// <typeparam name="TEventArgs">The type of <see cref="EventArgs"/> to be used with the event.</typeparam>
public static void InvokeAsync<TEventArgs>(this EventHandler<TEventArgs> someEvent, object sender, TEventArgs args)
    where TEventArgs : EventArgs
{
    if (someEvent == null)
    {
        return;
    }

    var eventListeners = someEvent.GetInvocationList();

    AsyncCallback endAsyncCallback = delegate(IAsyncResult iar)
    {
        var ar = iar as AsyncResult;
        if (ar == null)
        {
            return;
        }

        var invokedMethod = ar.AsyncDelegate as EventHandler<TEventArgs>;
        if (invokedMethod != null)
        {
            invokedMethod.EndInvoke(iar);
        }
    };

    foreach (EventHandler<TEventArgs> methodToInvoke in eventListeners)
    {
        methodToInvoke.BeginInvoke(sender, args, endAsyncCallback, null);
    }
}

/// <summary>
/// Invoke an event asynchronously. Each subscriber to the event will be invoked on a separate thread.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="someEvent">The event to be invoked asynchronously.</param>
/// <param name="sender">The sender of the event.</param>
/// <param name="args">The args of the event.</param>
public static void InvokeAsync(this EventHandler someEvent, object sender, EventArgs args)
{
    if (someEvent == null)
    {
        return;
    }

    var eventListeners = someEvent.GetInvocationList();

    AsyncCallback endAsyncCallback = delegate(IAsyncResult iar)
    {
        var ar = iar as AsyncResult;
        if (ar == null)
        {
            return;
        }

        var invokedMethod = ar.AsyncDelegate as EventHandler;
        if (invokedMethod != null)
        {
            invokedMethod.EndInvoke(iar);
        }
    };

    foreach (EventHandler methodToInvoke in eventListeners)
    {
        methodToInvoke.BeginInvoke(sender, args, endAsyncCallback, null);
    }
}

使用方法:

public class Foo
{
    public event EventHandler<EventArgs> Bar;

    public void OnBar()
    {
        Bar.InvokeAsync(this, EventArgs.Empty);
    }
}

请注意，在调用事件之前，您不必检查事件是否为空。例如:

EventHandler<EventArgs> handler = Bar;
if (handler != null)
{
    // Invoke the event
}

测试:

void Main()
{
    EventHandler<EventArgs> handler1 =
    delegate(object sender, EventArgs args)
    {
        // Simulate performing work in handler1
        Thread.Sleep(100);
        Console.WriteLine("Handled 1");
    };

    EventHandler<EventArgs> handler2 =
    delegate(object sender, EventArgs args)
    {
        // Simulate performing work in handler2
        Thread.Sleep(50);
        Console.WriteLine("Handled 2");
    };

    EventHandler<EventArgs> handler3 =
    delegate(object sender, EventArgs args)
    {
        // Simulate performing work in handler3
        Thread.Sleep(25);
        Console.WriteLine("Handled 3");
    };

    var foo = new Foo();
    foo.Bar += handler1;
    foo.Bar += handler2;
    foo.Bar += handler3;
    foo.OnBar();

    Console.WriteLine("Start executing important stuff");

    // Simulate performing some important stuff here, where we don't want to
    // wait around for the event handlers to finish executing
    Thread.Sleep(1000);

    Console.WriteLine("Finished executing important stuff");
}

调用事件将(通常)产生以下输出:

开始执行重要的事情 处理3 处理2 处理1 完成重要的任务

如果事件是同步调用的，它总是会产生这样的输出-并延迟“重要”内容的执行:

处理1 处理2 处理3 开始执行重要的事情 完成重要的任务
