当前回答

我经常用这个来表示可为空的数字。我帮助用0,NaN,无穷大…

public static bool IsNullOrDefault<T>(this T? o) 
    where T : struct
{
        return o == null || o.Value.Equals(default(T));
}

其他回答

我今天刚刚在博客上写了这个。它是INotifyPropertyChanged属性周围的强类型响应式包装器。

GetPropertyValues返回一个IObservable<T>的值,当它们改变时,从当前值开始。如果忽略当前值,可以对结果调用Skip(1)。

用法如下:

IObservable<int> values = viewModel.GetPropertyValues(x => x.IntProperty);

实现:

public static class NotifyPropertyChangeReactiveExtensions
{
    // Returns the values of property (an Expression) as they change, 
    // starting with the current value
    public static IObservable<TValue> GetPropertyValues<TSource, TValue>(
        this TSource source, Expression<Func<TSource, TValue>> property)
        where TSource : INotifyPropertyChanged
    {
        MemberExpression memberExpression = property.Body as MemberExpression;

        if (memberExpression == null)
        {
            throw new ArgumentException(
                "property must directly access a property of the source");
        }

        string propertyName = memberExpression.Member.Name;

        Func<TSource, TValue> accessor = property.Compile();

        return source.GetPropertyChangedEvents()
            .Where(x => x.EventArgs.PropertyName == propertyName)
            .Select(x => accessor(source))
            .StartWith(accessor(source));
    }

    // This is a wrapper around FromEvent(PropertyChanged)
    public static IObservable<IEvent<PropertyChangedEventArgs>>
        GetPropertyChangedEvents(this INotifyPropertyChanged source)
    {
        return Observable.FromEvent<PropertyChangedEventHandler, 
            PropertyChangedEventArgs>(
            h => new PropertyChangedEventHandler(h),
            h => source.PropertyChanged += h,
            h => source.PropertyChanged -= h);
    }
}
// This file contains extension methods for generic List<> class to operate on sorted lists.
// Duplicate values are OK.
// O(ln(n)) is still much faster then the O(n) of LINQ's searches/filters.
static partial class SortedList
{
    // Return the index of the first element with the key greater then provided.
    // If there's no such element within the provided range, it returns iAfterLast.
    public static int sortedFirstGreaterIndex<tElt, tKey>( this IList<tElt> list, Func<tElt, tKey, int> comparer, tKey key, int iFirst, int iAfterLast )
    {
        if( iFirst < 0 || iAfterLast < 0 || iFirst > list.Count || iAfterLast > list.Count )
            throw new IndexOutOfRangeException();
        if( iFirst > iAfterLast )
            throw new ArgumentException();
        if( iFirst == iAfterLast )
            return iAfterLast;

        int low = iFirst, high = iAfterLast;
        // The code below is inspired by the following article:
        // http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_search#Single_comparison_per_iteration
        while( low < high )
        {
            int mid = ( high + low ) / 2;
            // 'mid' might be 'iFirst' in case 'iFirst+1 == iAfterLast'.
            // 'mid' will never be 'iAfterLast'.
            if( comparer( list[ mid ], key ) <= 0 ) // "<=" since we gonna find the first "greater" element
                low = mid + 1;
            else
                high = mid;
        }
        return low;
    }

    // Return the index of the first element with the key greater then the provided key.
    // If there's no such element, returns list.Count.
    public static int sortedFirstGreaterIndex<tElt, tKey>( this IList<tElt> list, Func<tElt, tKey, int> comparer, tKey key )
    {
        return list.sortedFirstGreaterIndex( comparer, key, 0, list.Count );
    }

    // Add an element to the sorted array.
    // This could be an expensive operation if frequently adding elements that sort firstly.
    // This is cheap operation when adding elements that sort near the tail of the list.
    public static int sortedAdd<tElt>( this List<tElt> list, Func<tElt, tElt, int> comparer, tElt elt )
    {
        if( list.Count == 0 || comparer( list[ list.Count - 1 ], elt ) <= 0 )
        {
            // either the list is empty, or the item is greater then all elements already in the collection.
            list.Add( elt );
            return list.Count - 1;
        }
        int ind = list.sortedFirstGreaterIndex( comparer, elt );
        list.Insert( ind, elt );
        return ind;
    }

    // Find first exactly equal element, return -1 if not found.
    public static int sortedFindFirstIndex<tElt, tKey>( this List<tElt> list, Func<tElt, tKey, int> comparer, tKey elt )
    {
        int low = 0, high = list.Count - 1;

        while( low < high )
        {
            int mid = ( high + low ) / 2;
            if( comparer( list[ mid ], elt ) < 0 )
                low = mid + 1;
            else
                high = mid; // this includes the case when we've found an element exactly matching the key
        }
        if( high >= 0 && 0 == comparer( list[ high ], elt ) )
            return high;
        return -1;
    }

    // Return the IEnumerable that returns array elements in the reverse order.
    public static IEnumerable<tElt> sortedReverse<tElt>( this List<tElt> list )
    {
        for( int i=list.Count - 1; i >= 0; i-- )
            yield return list[ i ];
    }
}

我一直在用这个:

public static void DelimitedAppend(this StringBuilder sb, string value, string delimiter)
{
    if (sb.Length > 0)
        sb.Append(delimiter);
    sb.Append(value);
}

这只是确保当字符串为空时不会插入分隔符。 例如,创建一个以逗号分隔的单词列表:

var farmAnimals = new[] { new { Species = "Dog", IsTasty = false }, new { Species = "Cat", IsTasty = false }, new { Species = "Chicken", IsTasty = true }, };
var soupIngredients = new StringBuilder();
foreach (var edible in farmAnimals.Where(farmAnimal => farmAnimal.IsTasty))
    soupIngredients.DelimitedAppend(edible.Species, ", ");

没有检查整个线程,所以它可能已经在这里,但是:

public static class FluentOrderingExtensions
    public class FluentOrderer<T> : IEnumerable<T>
    {
        internal List<Comparison<T>> Comparers = new List<Comparison<T>>();

        internal IEnumerable<T> Source;

        public FluentOrderer(IEnumerable<T> source)
        {
            Source = source;
        }

        #region Implementation of IEnumerable

        public IEnumerator<T> GetEnumerator()
        {
            var workingArray = Source.ToArray();
            Array.Sort(workingArray, IterativeComparison);

            foreach(var element in workingArray) yield return element;
        }

        private int IterativeComparison(T a, T b)
        {
            foreach (var comparer in Comparers)
            {
                var result = comparer(a,b);
                if(result != 0) return result;
            }
            return 0;
        }

        IEnumerator IEnumerable.GetEnumerator()
        {
            return GetEnumerator();
        }

        #endregion
    }

    public static FluentOrderer<T> OrderFluentlyBy<T,TResult>(this IEnumerable<T> source, Func<T,TResult> predicate) 
        where TResult : IComparable<TResult>
    {
        var result = new FluentOrderer<T>(source);
        result.Comparers.Add((a,b)=>predicate(a).CompareTo(predicate(b)));
        return result;
    }

    public static FluentOrderer<T> OrderFluentlyByDescending<T,TResult>(this IEnumerable<T> source, Func<T,TResult> predicate) 
        where TResult : IComparable<TResult>
    {
        var result = new FluentOrderer<T>(source);
        result.Comparers.Add((a,b)=>predicate(a).CompareTo(predicate(b)) * -1);
        return result;
    }

    public static FluentOrderer<T> ThenBy<T, TResult>(this FluentOrderer<T> source, Func<T, TResult> predicate)
        where TResult : IComparable<TResult>
    {
        source.Comparers.Add((a, b) => predicate(a).CompareTo(predicate(b)));
        return source;
    }

    public static FluentOrderer<T> ThenByDescending<T, TResult>(this FluentOrderer<T> source, Func<T, TResult> predicate)
        where TResult : IComparable<TResult>
    {
        source.Comparers.Add((a, b) => predicate(a).CompareTo(predicate(b)) * -1);
        return source;
    }
}

用法:

var myFluentlyOrderedList = GetABunchOfComplexObjects()
    .OrderFluentlyBy(x=>x.PropertyA)
    .ThenByDescending(x=>x.PropertyB)
    .ThenBy(x=>x.SomeMethod())
    .ThenBy(x=>SomeOtherMethodAppliedTo(x))
    .ToList();

... 当然,假设所有的谓词都返回与自身icomcomparable的类型。如果使用像MergeSort这样的稳定排序,而不是。net内置的快速排序,它会更好地工作,但它提供了类似于SQL的可读多字段排序能力(无论如何,它是方法链所能获得的最接近的功能)。您可以通过定义重载来接受比较lambda,而不是基于谓词创建它,从而扩展它以容纳非IComparable的成员。

EDIT: A little explanation, since the commenter got some upticks: this set of methods improves upon the basic OrderBy() functionality by allowing you to sort based on multiple fields in descending order of importance. A real-world example would be sorting a list of invoices by customer, then by invoice number (or invoice date). Other methods of getting the data in this order either wouldn't work (OrderBy() uses an unstable sort, so it cannot be chained) or would be inefficient and not look like it does what you're trying to do.

通过操作系统文件系统信息比较文件/目录。这对于比较共享和本地文件非常有用。

用法:

DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo(@"C:\test\myShareDir");
Console.WriteLine(dir.IsSameFileAs(@"\\myMachineName\myShareDir"));

FileInfo file = new FileInfo(@"C:\test\myShareDir\file.txt");
Console.WriteLine(file.IsSameFileAs(@"\\myMachineName\myShareDir\file.txt"));
