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):

public static class CollectionHelper

        @this[IndexB] = Temp;

其他回答

将double类型转换为使用指定区域性格式化的字符串:

public static class ExtensionMethods 
{
  public static string ToCurrency(this double value, string cultureName)
  {
    CultureInfo currentCulture = new CultureInfo(cultureName);
    return (string.Format(currentCulture, "{0:C}", value));
  }
}

例子:

double test = 154.20;
string testString = test.ToCurrency("en-US"); // $154.20

ASP。NET HTML编码-简短和甜蜜:

public static string ToHtmlEncodedString(this string s)
{
    if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(s))
        return s;
    return HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(s);
}

也许我写过和用过的最有用的扩展方法是:

http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/fun-with-cs-extensions.aspx?msg=2838918#xx2838918xx

避免参数的解析模式:

public static bool TryParseInt32(this string input, Action<int> action)
{
    int result;
    if (Int32.TryParse(input, out result))
    {
        action(result);
        return true;
    }
    return false;
}

用法:

if (!textBox.Text.TryParseInt32(number => label.Text = SomeMathFunction(number)))
    label.Text = "Please enter a valid integer";

这可以放在codeplex项目中,如果需要的话

二分查找:

public static T BinarySearch<T, TKey>(this IList<T> list, Func<T, TKey> keySelector, TKey key)
        where TKey : IComparable<TKey>
{
    int min = 0;
    int max = list.Count;
    int index = 0;
    while (min < max)
    {
        int mid = (max + min) / 2;
        T midItem = list[mid];
        TKey midKey = keySelector(midItem);
        int comp = midKey.CompareTo(key);
        if (comp < 0)
        {
            min = mid + 1;
        }
        else if (comp > 0)
        {
            max = mid - 1;
        }
        else
        {
            return midItem;
        }
    }
    if (min == max &&
        keySelector(list[min]).CompareTo(key) == 0)
    {
        return list[min];
    }
    throw new InvalidOperationException("Item not found");
}

用法(假设列表按Id排序):

var item = list.BinarySearch(i => i.Id, 42);

它抛出InvalidOperationException的事实可能看起来很奇怪,但这就是Enumerable。第一种情况是没有匹配项。
