在单元测试中很有用:

public static IList<T> Clone<T>(this IList<T> list) where T : ICloneable
{
    var ret = new List<T>(list.Count);
    foreach (var item in list)
        ret.Add((T)item.Clone());

    // done
    return ret;
}

像TWith2Sugars这样的一系列，交替缩短语法:

public static long? ToNullableInt64(this string val)
{
    long ret;
    return Int64.TryParse(val, out ret) ? ret : new long?();
}

最后，在BCL中是否已经有一些东西做了下面的事情?

public static void Split<T>(this T[] array, 
    Func<T,bool> determinator, 
    IList<T> onTrue, 
    IList<T> onFalse)
{
    if (onTrue == null)
        onTrue = new List<T>();
    else
        onTrue.Clear();

    if (onFalse == null)
        onFalse = new List<T>();
    else
        onFalse.Clear();

    if (determinator == null)
        return;

    foreach (var item in array)
    {
        if (determinator(item))
            onTrue.Add(item);
        else
            onFalse.Add(item);
    }
}

覆盖指定索引处的字符串的一部分。

我必须使用一个系统，它期望一些输入值是固定宽度，固定位置的字符串。

public static string Overwrite(this string s, int startIndex, string newStringValue)
{
  return s.Remove(startIndex, newStringValue.Length).Insert(startIndex, newStringValue);
}

所以我可以这样做:

string s = new String(' ',60);
s = s.Overwrite(7,"NewValue");

这是我写的唯一一个我经常使用的扩展。 它使得用System.Net.Mail发送电子邮件更容易一些。

public static class MailExtension
{
    // GetEmailCreditial(out strServer) gets credentials from an XML file
    public static void Send(this MailMessage email)
    {
        string strServer = String.Empty;
        NetworkCredential credentials = GetEmailCreditial(out strServer);
        SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient(strServer) { Credentials = credentials };
        client.Send(email);
    }

    public static void Send(this IEnumerable<MailMessage> emails)
    {
        string strServer = String.Empty;
        NetworkCredential credentials = GetEmailCreditial(out strServer);
        SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient(strServer) { Credentials = credentials };
        foreach (MailMessage email in emails)
            client.Send(email);
    }
}

// Example of use: 
new MailMessage("info@myDomain.com","you@gmail.com","This is an important Subject", "Body goes here").Send();
//Assume email1,email2,email3 are MailMessage objects
new List<MailMessage>(){email1, email2, email}.Send();

public static class DictionaryExtensions
{
    public static Nullable<TValue> GetValueOrNull<TKey, TValue>(this Dictionary<TKey, TValue> dictionary, TKey key)
        where TValue : struct
    {
        TValue result;
        if (dictionary.TryGetValue(key, out result))
            return result;
        else
            return null;
    }
}

免费使用，只需在代码中提到我的名字(Janko Röbisch)。

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");

如果你有波斯语，并且必须用波斯语向用户显示数字:

static public string ToFaString         (this string value)
        {
            // 1728 , 1584
            string result = "";
            if (value != null)
            {
                char[] resChar = value.ToCharArray();
                for (int i = 0; i < resChar.Length; i++)
                {
                    if (resChar[i] >= '0' && resChar[i] <= '9')
                        result += (char)(resChar[i] + 1728);
                    else
                        result += resChar[i];
                }
            }
            return result;
        }
