当我迁移到c#时，我错过了Visual Basic的With语句，所以它是这样的:

public static void With<T>(this T obj, Action<T> act) { act(obj); }

下面是如何在c#中使用它:

someVeryVeryLonggggVariableName.With(x => {
    x.Int = 123;
    x.Str = "Hello";
    x.Str2 = " World!";
});

节省了大量的输入!

将其与:

someVeryVeryLonggggVariableName.Int = 123;
someVeryVeryLonggggVariableName.Str = "Hello";
someVeryVeryLonggggVariableName.Str2 = " World!";

我使用的两种颜色扩展，主要用于控件开发:

public static class ColorExtensions
{
  // Gets a color that will be readable on top of a given background color
  public static Color GetForegroundColor(this Color input)
  {
    // Math taken from one of the replies to
    // http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2241447/make-foregroundcolor-black-or-white-depending-on-background
    if (Math.Sqrt(input.R * input.R * .241 + input.G * input.G * .691 + input.B * input.B * .068) > 128)
      return Color.Black;
    else
      return Color.White;
  }

  // Converts a given Color to gray
  public static Color ToGray(this Color input)
  {
    int g = (int)(input.R * .299) + (int)(input.G * .587) + (int)(input.B * .114);
    return Color.FromArgb(input.A, g, g, g);
  }
}

用法:

Color foreColor = someBackColor.GetForegroundColor();
Color grayColor = someBackColor.ToGray();

public static class ComparableExtensions
{
  public static bool Between<T>(this T actual, T lower, T upper) where T : IComparable<T>
  {
    return actual.CompareTo(lower) >= 0 && actual.CompareTo(upper) < 0;
  }
}

例子:

if (myNumber.Between(3,7))
{
  // ....
}

一般的尝试:

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        var z = 0;
        var a = 0.AsDefaultFor(() => 1 / z);
        Console.WriteLine(a);
        Console.ReadLine();
    }
}

public static class TryExtensions
{
    public static T AsDefaultFor<T>(this T @this, Func<T> operation)
    {
        try
        {
            return operation();
        }
        catch
        {
            return @this;
        }
    }
}

如果你愿意，把它放到CodePlex项目上。
