从集合中加载默认设置的一种更简单的方法(在现实生活中，我使用它来填充来自任何来源的设置，包括命令行，ClickOnce URL参数等):

public static void LoadFrom(this ApplicationSettingsBase settings, NameValueCollection configuration)
{
    if (configuration != null)
        foreach (string key in configuration.AllKeys)
            if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(key))
                try
                {
                    settings[key] = configuration.Get(key);
                }
                catch (SettingsPropertyNotFoundException)
                {
                  // handle bad arguments as you wish
                }
}

例子:

Settings.Default.LoadFrom(new NameValueCollection() { { "Setting1", "Value1" }, { "Setting2", "Value2" } });

一些方便的字符串助手:

用法:

我讨厌不需要的空格尾随或引导字符串，因为字符串可以采取空值，这可能是棘手的，所以我使用这个:

public bool IsGroup { get { return !this.GroupName.IsNullOrTrimEmpty(); } }

这是另一个扩展方法，我使用一个新的验证框架，我正在试验。你可以看到regex扩展，帮助清理凌乱的regex:

public static bool IsRequiredWithLengthLessThanOrEqualNoSpecial(this String str, int length)
{
    return !str.IsNullOrTrimEmpty() &&
        str.RegexMatch(
            @"^[- \r\n\\\.!:*,@$%&""?\(\)\w']{1,{0}}$".RegexReplace(@"\{0\}", length.ToString()),
            RegexOptions.Multiline) == str;
}

public static class StringHelpers
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Same as String.IsNullOrEmpty except that
    /// it captures the Empty state for whitespace
    /// strings by Trimming first.
    /// </summary>
    public static bool IsNullOrTrimEmpty(this String helper)
    {
        if (helper == null)
            return true;
        else
            return String.Empty == helper.Trim();
    }

    public static int TrimLength(this String helper)
    {
        return helper.Trim().Length;
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Returns the matched string from the regex pattern. The
    /// groupName is for named group match values in the form (?<name>group).
    /// </summary>
    public static string RegexMatch(this String helper, string pattern, RegexOptions options, string groupName)
    {
        if (groupName.IsNullOrTrimEmpty())
            return Regex.Match(helper, pattern, options).Value;
        else
            return Regex.Match(helper, pattern, options).Groups[groupName].Value;
    }

    public static string RegexMatch(this String helper, string pattern)
    {
        return RegexMatch(helper, pattern, RegexOptions.None, null);
    }

    public static string RegexMatch(this String helper, string pattern, RegexOptions options)
    {
        return RegexMatch(helper, pattern, options, null);
    }

    public static string RegexMatch(this String helper, string pattern, string groupName)
    {
        return RegexMatch(helper, pattern, RegexOptions.None, groupName);
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Returns true if there is a match from the regex pattern
    /// </summary>
    public static bool IsRegexMatch(this String helper, string pattern, RegexOptions options)
    {
        return helper.RegexMatch(pattern, options).Length > 0;
    }

    public static bool IsRegexMatch(this String helper, string pattern)
    {
        return helper.IsRegexMatch(pattern, RegexOptions.None);
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Returns a string where matching patterns are replaced by the replacement string.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="pattern">The regex pattern for matching the items to be replaced</param>
    /// <param name="replacement">The string to replace matching items</param>
    /// <returns></returns>
    public static string RegexReplace(this String helper, string pattern, string replacement, RegexOptions options)
    {
        return Regex.Replace(helper, pattern, replacement, options);
    }

    public static string RegexReplace(this String helper, string pattern, string replacement)
    {
        return Regex.Replace(helper, pattern, replacement, RegexOptions.None);

我喜欢做很多正则表达式，所以我认为这些比添加using语句和额外的代码来处理命名组更容易。

我喜欢这些NUnit Assert扩展:http://svn.caffeine-it.com/openrasta/trunk/src/Rasta.Testing/AssertExtensions.cs

为什么不呢!这是一个扩展到IList(不能是IEnumerable，因为我使用列表特定的功能)插入排序。

internal static class SortingHelpers
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Performs an insertion sort on this list.
    /// </summary>
    /// <typeparam name="T">The type of the list supplied.</typeparam>
    /// <param name="list">the list to sort.</param>
    /// <param name="comparison">the method for comparison of two elements.</param>
    /// <returns></returns>
    public static void InsertionSort<T>(this IList<T> list, Comparison<T> comparison)
    {
        for (int i = 2; i < list.Count; i++)
        {
            for (int j = i; j > 1 && comparison(list[j], list[j - 1]) < 0; j--)
            {
                T tempItem = list[j];
                list.RemoveAt(j);
                list.Insert(j - 1, tempItem);
            }
        }
    }
}

一个例子:

List<int> list1 = { 3, 5, 1, 2, 9, 4, 6 };
list1.InsertionSort((a,b) => a - b);
//list is now in order of 1,2,3,4,5,6,9

For adding multiple elements to a collection that doesn't have AddRange, e.g., collection.Add(item1, item2, itemN); static void Add<T>(this ICollection<T> coll, params T[] items) { foreach (var item in items) coll.Add(item); } The following is like string.Format() but with custom string representation of arguments, e.g., "{0} {1} {2}".Format<Custom>(c=>c.Name,"string",new object(),new Custom()) results in "string {System.Object} Custom1Name" static string Format<T>( this string format , Func<T,object> select , params object[] args) { for(int i=0; i < args.Length; ++i) { var x = args[i] as T; if (x != null) args[i] = select(x); } return string.Format(format, args); }

与时间跨度相关的扩展，如:

public static TimeSpan Seconds(this int seconds)
{
  return TimeSpan.FromSeconds(seconds);
}

public static TimeSpan Minutes(this int minutes)
{
  return TimeSpan.FromMinutes(minutes);
}

允许使用:

1.Seconds()
20.Minutes()

像这样的锁定扩展:

public static IDisposable GetReadLock(this ReaderWriterLockSlim slimLock)
{
  slimLock.EnterReadLock();
  return new DisposableAction(slimLock.ExitReadLock);
}

public static IDisposable GetWriteLock(this ReaderWriterLockSlim slimLock)
{
  slimLock.EnterWriteLock();
  return new DisposableAction(slimLock.ExitWriteLock);
}

public static IDisposable GetUpgradeableReadLock(this ReaderWriterLockSlim slimLock)
{
  slimLock.EnterUpgradeableReadLock();
  return new DisposableAction(slimLock.ExitUpgradeableReadLock);
}

允许使用像这样的锁:

using (lock.GetUpgradeableReadLock())
{
  // try read
  using (lock.GetWriteLock())
  {
    //do write
  }
}
