我写过无数的扩展方法,这里有几个我觉得特别有用的。请随意执行。

第一个是我最喜欢的,因为它可以代替:

Control c = this.FindControl("tbName");
if (c != null)
{
    // Do something with c
    customer.Name = ((TextBox)c).Text;
}

用这个:

TextBox c = this.FindControl<TextBox>("tbName");
customer.Name = c.Text;

设置默认字符串值:

string str = "";
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(str))
{
    str = "I'm empty!";
}

就变成:

str = str.Alternative("I'm empty!");

其他回答

把这个:

DbCommand command = connection.CreateCommand();
command.CommandText = "SELECT @param";

DbParameter param = command.CreateParameter();
param.ParameterName = "@param";
param.Value = "Hello World";

command.Parameters.Add(param);

... 到这个:

DbCommand command = connection.CreateCommand("SELECT {0}", "Hello World");

... 使用这个扩展方法:

using System;
using System.Data.Common;
using System.Globalization;
using System.Reflection;

namespace DbExtensions {

   public static class Db {

      static readonly Func<DbConnection, DbProviderFactory> getDbProviderFactory;
      static readonly Func<DbCommandBuilder, int, string> getParameterName;
      static readonly Func<DbCommandBuilder, int, string> getParameterPlaceholder;

      static Db() {

         getDbProviderFactory = (Func<DbConnection, DbProviderFactory>)Delegate.CreateDelegate(typeof(Func<DbConnection, DbProviderFactory>), typeof(DbConnection).GetProperty("DbProviderFactory", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic).GetGetMethod(true));
         getParameterName = (Func<DbCommandBuilder, int, string>)Delegate.CreateDelegate(typeof(Func<DbCommandBuilder, int, string>), typeof(DbCommandBuilder).GetMethod("GetParameterName", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic, Type.DefaultBinder, new Type[] { typeof(Int32) }, null));
         getParameterPlaceholder = (Func<DbCommandBuilder, int, string>)Delegate.CreateDelegate(typeof(Func<DbCommandBuilder, int, string>), typeof(DbCommandBuilder).GetMethod("GetParameterPlaceholder", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic, Type.DefaultBinder, new Type[] { typeof(Int32) }, null));
      }

      public static DbProviderFactory GetProviderFactory(this DbConnection connection) {
         return getDbProviderFactory(connection);
      }

      public static DbCommand CreateCommand(this DbConnection connection, string commandText, params object[] parameters) {

         if (connection == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("connection");

         return CreateCommandImpl(GetProviderFactory(connection).CreateCommandBuilder(), connection.CreateCommand(), commandText, parameters);
      }

      private static DbCommand CreateCommandImpl(DbCommandBuilder commandBuilder, DbCommand command, string commandText, params object[] parameters) {

         if (commandBuilder == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("commandBuilder");
         if (command == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("command");
         if (commandText == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("commandText");

         if (parameters == null || parameters.Length == 0) {
            command.CommandText = commandText;
            return command;
         }

         object[] paramPlaceholders = new object[parameters.Length];

         for (int i = 0; i < paramPlaceholders.Length; i++) {

            DbParameter dbParam = command.CreateParameter();
            dbParam.ParameterName = getParameterName(commandBuilder, i);
            dbParam.Value = parameters[i] ?? DBNull.Value;
            command.Parameters.Add(dbParam);

            paramPlaceholders[i] = getParameterPlaceholder(commandBuilder, i);
         }

         command.CommandText = String.Format(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, commandText, paramPlaceholders);

         return command;
      }
   }
}

更多的麻烦。NET扩展方法:DbExtensions

我喜欢下面这些方法来处理带有Flags属性集的枚举:

public static bool AnyOf(this object mask, object flags)
{
    return ((int)mask & (int)flags) != 0;
}
public static bool AllOf(this object mask, object flags)
{
    return ((int)mask & (int)flags) == (int)flags;
}
public static object SetOn(this object mask, object flags)
{
    return (int)mask | (int)flags;
}
etc.

使用示例:

var options = SomeOptions.OptionA;
options = options.SetOn(OptionB);
options = options.SetOn(OptionC);

if (options.AnyOf(SomeOptions.OptionA | SomeOptions.OptionB))
{
etc.

原始方法来自本文:http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/masksandflags.aspx?display=Print 我只是把它们转换成扩展方法。

但它们的一个问题是对象类型的参数,这意味着所有对象最终都被这些方法扩展,而理想情况下,它们应该只应用于枚举。

更新 根据评论,你可以绕过“签名污染”,以牺牲性能为代价,如下所示:

public static bool AnyOf(this Enum mask, object flags)
{
    return (Convert.ToInt642(mask) & (int)flags) != 0;
}

在单元测试中很有用:

public static IList<T> Clone<T>(this IList<T> list) where T : ICloneable
{
    var ret = new List<T>(list.Count);
    foreach (var item in list)
        ret.Add((T)item.Clone());

    // done
    return ret;
}

像TWith2Sugars这样的一系列,交替缩短语法:

public static long? ToNullableInt64(this string val)
{
    long ret;
    return Int64.TryParse(val, out ret) ? ret : new long?();
}

最后,在BCL中是否已经有一些东西做了下面的事情?

public static void Split<T>(this T[] array, 
    Func<T,bool> determinator, 
    IList<T> onTrue, 
    IList<T> onFalse)
{
    if (onTrue == null)
        onTrue = new List<T>();
    else
        onTrue.Clear();

    if (onFalse == null)
        onFalse = new List<T>();
    else
        onFalse.Clear();

    if (determinator == null)
        return;

    foreach (var item in array)
    {
        if (determinator(item))
            onTrue.Add(item);
        else
            onFalse.Add(item);
    }
}

字符串。格式的快捷方式:

public static class StringExtensions
{
    // Enable quick and more natural string.Format calls
    public static string F(this string s, params object[] args)
    {
        return string.Format(s, args);
    }
}

例子:

var s = "The co-ordinate is ({0}, {1})".F(point.X, point.Y);

要快速复制粘贴,请点击这里。

难道你不觉得输入“一些字符串”. f(“param”)而不是字符串更自然吗?格式(“一些字符串”,“参数”)?

想要一个更容易读懂的名字,试试下面的建议:

s = "Hello {0} world {1}!".Fmt("Stack", "Overflow");
s = "Hello {0} world {1}!".FormatBy("Stack", "Overflow");
s = "Hello {0} world {1}!".FormatWith("Stack", "Overflow");
s = "Hello {0} world {1}!".Display("Stack", "Overflow");
s = "Hello {0} world {1}!".With("Stack", "Overflow");
