我觉得这个很有用:

public static class PaulaBean
{
    private static String paula = "Brillant";
    public static String GetPaula<T>(this T obj) {
        return paula;
    }
}

你可以在CodePlex上使用它。

讨厌这种代码?

CloneableClass cc1 = new CloneableClass ();
CloneableClass cc2 = null;
CloneableClass cc3 = null;

cc3 = (CloneableClass) cc1.Clone (); // this is ok
cc3 = cc2.Clone (); // this throws null ref exception
// code to handle both cases
cc3 = cc1 != null ? (CloneableClass) cc1.Clone () : null;

它有点笨拙，所以我用这个扩展替换它，我称之为CloneOrNull -

public static T CloneOrNull<T> (this T self) where T : class, ICloneable
{
    if (self == null) return null;
    return (T) self.Clone ();
}

用法如下:

CloneableClass cc1 = new CloneableClass ();
CloneableClass cc2 = null;
CloneableClass cc3 = null;

cc3 = cc1.CloneOrNull (); // clone of cc1
cc3 = cc2.CloneOrNull (); // null
// look mom, no casts!

请随意在任何地方使用这个!

我发现下面的扩展方法非常有用:

public static T GetService<T>(this IServiceProvider provider)
{
    return (T)provider.GetService(typeof(T));
}

它使使用IServiceProvider接口变得更加容易。比较:

IProvideValueTarget target = (IProvideValueTarget)serviceProvider(typeof(IProvideValueTarget));

and

var target = serviceProvider.GetService<IProvideValueTarget>();

还有一点:

public enum ParseFailBehavior
{
   ReturnNull,
   ReturnDefault,
   ThrowException
}

public static T? ParseNullableEnum<T>(this string theValue, ParseFailBehavior desiredBehavior = ParseFailBehavior.ReturnNull) where T:struct
{
   T output;
   T? result = Enum.TryParse<T>(theValue, out output) 
      ? (T?)output
      : desiredBehavior == ParseFailBehavior.ReturnDefault
         ? (T?)default(T)
         : null;

   if(result == null && desiredBehavior == ParseFailBehavior.ThrowException)
      throw new ArgumentException("Parse Failed for value {0} of enum type {1}".
         FormatWith(theValue, typeof(T).Name));       
}

这个版本需要。net 4.0;在3.5中你没有TryParse和可选参数;你就只能使用enumel . parse()，你必须尝试捕获它。它在3.5中仍然是完全可行的(而且更有用，因为enumel . parse()是oogly的，也是你唯一的其他选择):

public static T? ParseNummableEnum<T>(this string theValue)
{
    return theValue.ParseNullableEnum<T>(ParseFailBehavior.ReturnNull);
}

public static T? ParseNullableEnum<T>(this string theValue, 
    ParseFailBehavior desiredBehavior) where T:struct
{
    try
    {
        return (T?) Enum.Parse(typeof (T), theValue);
    }
    catch (Exception)
    {
        if(desiredBehavior == ParseFailBehavior.ThrowException) throw;
    }

    return desiredBehavior == ParseFailBehavior.ReturnDefault ? (T?)default(T) : null;
}

用法:

//returns null if OptionOne isn't an enum constant
var myEnum = "OptionOne".ParseNullableEnum<OptionEnum>(); 

//guarantees a return value IF the enum has a "zero" constant value (generally a good practice)
var myEnum = "OptionTwo".ParseNullableEnum<OptionEnum>(ParseFailBehavior.ReturnDefault).Value 

类似于上面的字符串As和Is，但对所有对象都是全局的。

这很简单，但我经常使用这些方法来缓解拳击中的parens爆炸。

public static class ExtensionMethods_Object
{
    [DebuggerStepThrough()]
    public static bool Is<T>(this object item) where T : class
    {
        return item is T;
    }

    [DebuggerStepThrough()]
    public static bool IsNot<T>(this object item) where T : class
    {
        return !(item.Is<T>());
    }

    [DebuggerStepThrough()]
    public static T As<T>(this object item) where T : class
    {
        return item as T;
    }
}

我很高兴这段代码能在codeplex上使用，事实上它已经在使用了。

这一次是为了使UriBuilder在处理查询参数时更加友好。

    /// <summary>
    /// Adds the specified query parameter to the URI builder.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="builder">The builder.</param>
    /// <param name="parameterName">Name of the parameter.</param>
    /// <param name="value">The URI escaped value.</param>
    /// <returns>The final full query string.</returns>
    public static string AddQueryParam(this UriBuilder builder, string parameterName, string value)
    {
        if (parameterName == null)
            throw new ArgumentNullException("parameterName");

        if (parameterName.Length == 0)
            throw new ArgumentException("The parameter name is empty.");

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

        if (value.Length == 0)
            throw new ArgumentException("The value is empty.");

        if (builder.Query.Length == 0)
        {
            builder.Query = String.Concat(parameterName, "=", value);
        }
        else if
            (builder.Query.Contains(String.Concat("&", parameterName, "="))
            || builder.Query.Contains(String.Concat("?", parameterName, "=")))
        {
            throw new InvalidOperationException(String.Format("The parameter {0} already exists.", parameterName));
        }
        else
        {
            builder.Query = String.Concat(builder.Query.Substring(1), "&", parameterName, "=", value);
        }

        return builder.Query;
    }
