轻松序列化对象为XML:

public static string ToXml<T>(this T obj) where T : class
{
    XmlSerializer s = new XmlSerializer(obj.GetType());
    using (StringWriter writer = new StringWriter())
    {
        s.Serialize(writer, obj);
        return writer.ToString();
    }
}

"<root><child>foo</child</root>".ToXml<MyCustomType>();

我有一个扩展方法记录异常:

public static void Log(this Exception obj)
{
  //your logging logic here
}

它的用法是这样的:

try
{
    //Your stuff here
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
    ex.Log();
}

[抱歉发了两次;第二个设计得更好:-)]

让我恼火的是，LINQ给了我一个OrderBy，它接受一个实现iccomparer的类作为参数，但不支持传入一个简单的匿名比较器函数。我纠正了这一点。

这个类从你的比较器函数中创建一个IComparer…

/// <summary>
///     Creates an <see cref="IComparer{T}"/> instance for the given
///     delegate function.
/// </summary>
internal class ComparerFactory<T> : IComparer<T>
{
    public static IComparer<T> Create(Func<T, T, int> comparison)
    {
        return new ComparerFactory<T>(comparison);
    }

    private readonly Func<T, T, int> _comparison;

    private ComparerFactory(Func<T, T, int> comparison)
    {
        _comparison = comparison;
    }

    #region IComparer<T> Members

    public int Compare(T x, T y)
    {
        return _comparison(x, y);
    }

    #endregion
}

.．.这些扩展方法暴露了可枚举对象上的新OrderBy重载。我怀疑这适用于LINQ to SQL，但它适用于LINQ to Objects。

public static class EnumerableExtensions
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Sorts the elements of a sequence in ascending order by using a specified comparison delegate.
    /// </summary>
    public static IOrderedEnumerable<TSource> OrderBy<TSource, TKey>(this IEnumerable<TSource> source, Func<TSource, TKey> keySelector,
                                                                     Func<TKey, TKey, int> comparison)
    {
        var comparer = ComparerFactory<TKey>.Create(comparison);
        return source.OrderBy(keySelector, comparer);
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Sorts the elements of a sequence in descending order by using a specified comparison delegate.
    /// </summary>
    public static IOrderedEnumerable<TSource> OrderByDescending<TSource, TKey>(this IEnumerable<TSource> source, Func<TSource, TKey> keySelector,
                                                                               Func<TKey, TKey, int> comparison)
    {
        var comparer = ComparerFactory<TKey>.Create(comparison);
        return source.OrderByDescending(keySelector, comparer);
    }
}

如果你愿意，可以把这个放在codeplex上。

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;
}

python字典方法:

/// <summary>
/// If a key exists in a dictionary, return its value, 
/// otherwise return the default value for that type.
/// </summary>
public static U GetWithDefault<T, U>(this Dictionary<T, U> dict, T key)
{
    return dict.GetWithDefault(key, default(U));
}

/// <summary>
/// If a key exists in a dictionary, return its value,
/// otherwise return the provided default value.
/// </summary>
public static U GetWithDefault<T, U>(this Dictionary<T, U> dict, T key, U defaultValue)
{
    return dict.ContainsKey(key)
        ? dict[key]
        : defaultValue;
}

当您希望将时间戳附加到文件名以确保唯一性时非常有用。

/// <summary>
/// Format a DateTime as a string that contains no characters
//// that are banned from filenames, such as ':'.
/// </summary>
/// <returns>YYYY-MM-DD_HH.MM.SS</returns>
public static string ToFilenameString(this DateTime dt)
{
    return dt.ToString("s").Replace(":", ".").Replace('T', '_');
}

日期时间扩展

例子:

DateTime firstDayOfMonth = DateTime.Now.First();
DateTime lastdayOfMonth = DateTime.Now.Last();
DateTime lastFridayInMonth = DateTime.Now.Last(DayOfWeek.Friday);
DateTime nextFriday = DateTime.Now.Next(DayOfWeek.Friday);
DateTime lunchTime = DateTime.Now.SetTime(11, 30);
DateTime noonOnFriday = DateTime.Now.Next(DayOfWeek.Friday).Noon();
DateTime secondMondayOfMonth = DateTime.Now.First(DayOfWeek.Monday).Next(DayOfWeek.Monday).Midnight();
