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。

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" } });
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");
这是我今天刚创建的一个。
// requires .NET 4
public static TReturn NullOr<TIn, TReturn>(this TIn obj, Func<TIn, TReturn> func,
TReturn elseValue = default(TReturn)) where TIn : class
{ return obj != null ? func(obj) : elseValue; }
// versions for CLR 2, which doesn't support optional params
public static TReturn NullOr<TIn, TReturn>(this TIn obj, Func<TIn, TReturn> func,
TReturn elseValue) where TIn : class
{ return obj != null ? func(obj) : elseValue; }
public static TReturn NullOr<TIn, TReturn>(this TIn obj, Func<TIn, TReturn> func)
where TIn : class
{ return obj != null ? func(obj) : default(TReturn); }
它让你这样做:
var lname = thingy.NullOr(t => t.Name).NullOr(n => n.ToLower());
哪个比这个更流畅，(依我看)更容易阅读:
var lname = (thingy != null ? thingy.Name : null) != null
? thingy.Name.ToLower() : null;
我使用以下扩展来扩展所有的集合(也许有人发现这些有用):

这是另一双我觉得用不完的鞋:
public static T ObjectWithMin<T, TResult>(this IEnumerable<T> sequence, Func<T, TResult> predicate)
where T : class
where TResult : IComparable
{
if (!sequence.Any()) return null;
//get the first object with its predicate value
var seed = sequence.Select(x => new {Object = x, Value = predicate(x)}).FirstOrDefault();
//compare against all others, replacing the accumulator with the lesser value
//tie goes to first object found
return
sequence.Select(x => new {Object = x, Value = predicate(x)})
.Aggregate(seed,(acc, x) => acc.Value.CompareTo(x.Value) <= 0 ? acc : x).Object;
}
public static T ObjectWithMax<T, TResult>(this IEnumerable<T> sequence, Func<T, TResult> predicate)
where T : class
where TResult : IComparable
{
if (!sequence.Any()) return null;
//get the first object with its predicate value
var seed = sequence.Select(x => new {Object = x, Value = predicate(x)}).FirstOrDefault();
//compare against all others, replacing the accumulator with the greater value
//tie goes to last object found
return
sequence.Select(x => new {Object = x, Value = predicate(x)})
.Aggregate(seed, (acc, x) => acc.Value.CompareTo(x.Value) > 0 ? acc : x).Object;
}
用法:
var myObject = myList.ObjectWithMin(x=>x.PropA);
这些方法基本上取代了像
var myObject = myList.OrderBy(x=>x.PropA).FirstOrDefault(); //O(nlog(n)) and unstable
and
var myObject = myList.Where(x=>x.PropA == myList.Min(x=>x.PropA)).FirstOrDefault(); //O(N^2) but stable
and
var minValue = myList.Min(x=>x.PropA);
var myObject = myList.Where(x=>x.PropA == minValue).FirstOrDefault(); //not a one-liner, and though linear and stable it's slower (evaluates the enumerable twice)
