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):

        @this[IndexB] = Temp;

获取URI的根域。

/// <summary>Gets the root domain of any URI</summary>
/// <param name="uri">URI to get root domain of</param>
/// <returns>Root domain with TLD</returns>
public static string GetRootDomain(this System.Uri uri)
{
    if (uri == null)
        return null;

    string Domain = uri.Host;
    while (System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Matches(Domain, @"[\.]").Count > 1)
        Domain = Domain.Substring(Domain.IndexOf('.') + 1);
    Domain = Domain.Substring(0, Domain.IndexOf('.'));
    return Domain;
}

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
  }
}

还有许多来自Lokad共享图书馆的其他书籍

用于ienumables的ForEach

public static class FrameworkExtensions
{
    // a map function
    public static void ForEach<T>(this IEnumerable<T> @enum, Action<T> mapFunction)
    {
        foreach (var item in @enum) mapFunction(item);
    }
}

天真的例子:

var buttons = GetListOfButtons() as IEnumerable<Button>;

// click all buttons
buttons.ForEach(b => b.Click());

酷的例子:

// no need to type the same assignment 3 times, just
// new[] up an array and use foreach + lambda
// everything is properly inferred by csc :-)
new { itemA, itemB, itemC }
    .ForEach(item => {
        item.Number = 1;
        item.Str = "Hello World!";
    });

注意:

这与Select不同，因为Select期望函数返回转换为另一个列表的内容。

ForEach只是允许您为每个项执行一些东西，而不需要任何转换/数据操作。

我这样做，所以我可以在一个更函数式的风格编程，我很惊讶，列表有一个ForEach，而IEnumerable没有。

把这个放到codeplex项目中

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.
    }
}

扩展方法:

public static void AddRange<T, S>(this ICollection<T> list, params S[] values)
    where S : T
{
    foreach (S value in values)
        list.Add(value);
}

该方法适用于所有类型，并允许您将一系列项作为参数添加到列表中。

例子:

var list = new List<Int32>();
list.AddRange(5, 4, 8, 4, 2);
