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。

覆盖指定索引处的字符串的一部分。
我必须使用一个系统,它期望一些输入值是固定宽度,固定位置的字符串。
public static string Overwrite(this string s, int startIndex, string newStringValue)
{
return s.Remove(startIndex, newStringValue.Length).Insert(startIndex, newStringValue);
}
所以我可以这样做:
string s = new String(' ',60);
s = s.Overwrite(7,"NewValue");
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" } });
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;
ASP。NET中,我使用这些扩展httpessionstate来加载会话中的对象。
它允许您以干净的方式加载会话对象,如果它们不存在,则将创建和初始化它们。
我使用两个扩展方法,如下所示:
private bool CreateMode;
private MyClass SomeClass;
protected override void OnInit (EventArgs e)
{
CreateMode = Session.GetSessionValue<bool> ("someKey1", () => true);
SomeClass = Session.GetSessionClass<MyClass> ("someKey2", () => new MyClass ()
{
MyProperty = 123
});
}
下面是扩展类:
public static class SessionExtensions
{
public delegate object UponCreate ();
public static T GetSessionClass<T> (this HttpSessionState session,
string key, UponCreate uponCreate) where T : class
{
if (null == session[key])
{
var item = uponCreate () as T;
session[key] = item;
return item;
}
return session[key] as T;
}
public static T GetSessionValue<T> (this HttpSessionState session,
string key, UponCreate uponCreate) where T : struct
{
if (null == session[key])
{
var item = uponCreate();
session[key] = item;
return (T)item;
}
return (T)session[key];
}
}
字符串。As<T>,可用于将字符串值转换为某种类型(主要用于支持IConvertable的原语和类型)。工作伟大的空类型,甚至枚举!
public static partial class StringExtensions
{
/// <summary>
/// Converts the string to the specified type, using the default value configured for the type.
/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="T">Type the string will be converted to. The type must implement IConvertable.</typeparam>
/// <param name="original">The original string.</param>
/// <returns>The converted value.</returns>
public static T As<T>(this String original)
{
return As(original, CultureInfo.CurrentCulture,
default(T));
}
/// <summary>
/// Converts the string to the specified type, using the default value configured for the type.
/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="T">Type the string will be converted to.</typeparam>
/// <param name="original">The original string.</param>
/// <param name="defaultValue">The default value to use in case the original string is null or empty, or can't be converted.</param>
/// <returns>The converted value.</returns>
public static T As<T>(this String original, T defaultValue)
{
return As(original, CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, defaultValue);
}
/// <summary>
/// Converts the string to the specified type, using the default value configured for the type.
/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="T">Type the string will be converted to.</typeparam>
/// <param name="original">The original string.</param>
/// <param name="provider">Format provider used during the type conversion.</param>
/// <returns>The converted value.</returns>
public static T As<T>(this String original, IFormatProvider provider)
{
return As(original, provider, default(T));
}
/// <summary>
/// Converts the string to the specified type.
/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="T">Type the string will be converted to.</typeparam>
/// <param name="original">The original string.</param>
/// <param name="provider">Format provider used during the type conversion.</param>
/// <param name="defaultValue">The default value to use in case the original string is null or empty, or can't be converted.</param>
/// <returns>The converted value.</returns>
/// <remarks>
/// If an error occurs while converting the specified value to the requested type, the exception is caught and the default is returned. It is strongly recommended you
/// do NOT use this method if it is important that conversion failures are not swallowed up.
///
/// This method is intended to be used to convert string values to primatives, not for parsing, converting, or deserializing complex types.
/// </remarks>
public static T As<T>(this String original, IFormatProvider provider,
T defaultValue)
{
T result;
Type type = typeof (T);
if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(original)) result = defaultValue;
else
{
// need to get the underlying type if T is Nullable<>.
if (type.IsNullableType())
{
type = Nullable.GetUnderlyingType(type);
}
try
{
// ChangeType doesn't work properly on Enums
result = type.IsEnum
? (T) Enum.Parse(type, original, true)
: (T) Convert.ChangeType(original, type, provider);
}
catch // HACK: what can we do to minimize or avoid raising exceptions as part of normal operation? custom string parsing (regex?) for well-known types? it would be best to know if you can convert to the desired type before you attempt to do so.
{
result = defaultValue;
}
}
return result;
}
}
这依赖于Type的另一个简单扩展:
/// <summary>
/// Extension methods for <see cref="Type"/>.
/// </summary>
public static class TypeExtensions
{
/// <summary>
/// Returns whether or not the specified type is <see cref="Nullable{T}"/>.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="type">A <see cref="Type"/>.</param>
/// <returns>True if the specified type is <see cref="Nullable{T}"/>; otherwise, false.</returns>
/// <remarks>Use <see cref="Nullable.GetUnderlyingType"/> to access the underlying type.</remarks>
public static bool IsNullableType(this Type type)
{
if (type == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("type");
return type.IsGenericType && type.GetGenericTypeDefinition().Equals(typeof (Nullable<>));
}
}
用法:
var someInt = "1".As<int>();
var someIntDefault = "bad value".As(1); // "bad value" won't convert, so the default value 1 is returned.
var someEnum = "Sunday".As<DayOfWeek>();
someEnum = "0".As<DayOfWeek>(); // returns Sunday
var someNullableEnum = "".As<DayOfWeek?>(null); // returns a null value since "" can't be converted
