让我们把你的优秀和最喜欢的扩展方法列一个列表。

要求是必须发布完整的代码,以及如何使用它的示例和解释。

基于对这个主题的高度兴趣,我在Codeplex上建立了一个名为extensionoverflow的开源项目。

请将您的回答标记为接受,以便将代码放入Codeplex项目。

请张贴完整的源代码,而不是一个链接。

下面是我经常使用的演示格式。

public static string ToTitleCase(this string mText)
{
    if (mText == null) return mText;

    System.Globalization.CultureInfo cultureInfo = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture;
    System.Globalization.TextInfo textInfo = cultureInfo.TextInfo;

    // TextInfo.ToTitleCase only operates on the string if is all lower case, otherwise it returns the string unchanged.
    return textInfo.ToTitleCase(mText.ToLower());
}

gitorious.org/cadenza是我所见过的一些最有用的扩展方法的完整库。

// Values ordered true/false
// True/false values separated by a capital letter
// Only two values allowed
// ---------------------------
// Limited, but could be useful
public enum BooleanFormat
{
    OneZero,
    YN,
    YesNo,
    TF,
    TrueFalse,
    PassFail,
    YepNope
}

public static class BooleanExtension
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Converts the boolean value of this instance to the specified string value. 
    /// </summary>
    private static string ToString(this bool value, string passValue, string failValue)
    {
        return value ? passValue : failValue;
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Converts the boolean value of this instance to a string. 
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="booleanFormat">A BooleanFormat value. 
    /// Example: BooleanFormat.PassFail would return "Pass" if true and "Fail" if false.</param>
    /// <returns>Boolean formatted string</returns>
    public static string ToString(this bool value, BooleanFormat booleanFormat)
    {
        string booleanFormatString = Enum.GetName(booleanFormat.GetType(), booleanFormat);
        return ParseBooleanString(value, booleanFormatString);      
    }

    // Parses boolean format strings, not optimized
    private static string ParseBooleanString(bool value, string booleanFormatString)
    {
        StringBuilder trueString = new StringBuilder();
        StringBuilder falseString = new StringBuilder();

        int charCount = booleanFormatString.Length;

        bool isTrueString = true;

        for (int i = 0; i != charCount; i++)
        {
            if (char.IsUpper(booleanFormatString[i]) && i != 0)
                isTrueString = false;

            if (isTrueString)
                trueString.Append(booleanFormatString[i]);
            else
                falseString.Append(booleanFormatString[i]);
        }

        return (value == true ? trueString.ToString() : falseString.ToString());
    }

我不想添加任何已经说过的东西,所以这里有一些我没有提到的东西。(如果这太长了,对不起):

public static class MyExtensions
{
    public static bool IsInteger(this string input)
    {
        int temp;

        return int.TryParse(input, out temp);
    }

    public static bool IsDecimal(this string input)
    {
        decimal temp;

        return decimal.TryParse(input, out temp);
    }

    public static int ToInteger(this string input, int defaultValue)
    {
        int temp;

        return (int.TryParse(input, out temp)) ? temp : defaultValue;
    }

    public static decimal ToDecimal(this string input, decimal defaultValue)
    {
        decimal temp;

        return (decimal.TryParse(input, out temp)) ? temp : defaultValue;
    }

    public static DateTime ToFirstOfTheMonth(this DateTime input)
    {
        return input.Date.AddDays(-1 * input.Day + 1);
    }

    // Intentionally returns 0 if the target date is before the input date.
    public static int MonthsUntil(this DateTime input, DateTime targetDate)
    {
        input = input.ToFirstOfTheMonth();

        targetDate = targetDate.ToFirstOfTheMonth();

        int result = 0;

        while (input < targetDate)
        {
        input = input.AddMonths(1);
            result++;
        }

        return result;
    }

    // Used for backwards compatibility in a system built before my time.
    public static DataTable ToDataTable(this IEnumerable input)
    {
        // too much code to show here right now...
    }
}

无论如何,把它放在codeplex项目中。

将对象序列化/反序列化为XML:

/// <summary>Serializes an object of type T in to an xml string</summary>
/// <typeparam name="T">Any class type</typeparam>
/// <param name="obj">Object to serialize</param>
/// <returns>A string that represents Xml, empty otherwise</returns>
public static string XmlSerialize<T>(this T obj) where T : class, new()
{
    if (obj == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("obj");

    var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(T));
    using (var writer = new StringWriter())
    {
        serializer.Serialize(writer, obj);
        return writer.ToString();
    }
}

/// <summary>Deserializes an xml string in to an object of Type T</summary>
/// <typeparam name="T">Any class type</typeparam>
/// <param name="xml">Xml as string to deserialize from</param>
/// <returns>A new object of type T is successful, null if failed</returns>
public static T XmlDeserialize<T>(this string xml) where T : class, new()
{
    if (xml == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("xml");

    var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(T));
    using (var reader = new StringReader(xml))
    {
        try { return (T)serializer.Deserialize(reader); }
        catch { return null; } // Could not be deserialized to this type.
    }
}

内联转换:我喜欢这个小模式。完成了Boolean, Double和DateTime。设计遵循c#的is和作为操作符。

public static Int32? AsInt32(this string s)
{
    Int32 value;
    if (Int32.TryParse(s, out value))
        return value;

    return null;
}

public static bool IsInt32(this string s)
{
    return s.AsInt32().HasValue;
}

public static Int32 ToInt32(this string s)
{
    return Int32.Parse(s);
{
