下面是一个扩展方法，它适应Rick Strahl的代码(以及注释)，使您不必在每次将字节数组或文本文件转换为字符串时猜测或阅读其字节顺序标记。

这个代码片段允许你简单地做:

byte[] buffer = File.ReadAllBytes(@"C:\file.txt");
string content = buffer.GetString();

如果你发现任何错误，请添加到评论中。请随意将它包含在Codeplex项目中。

public static class Extensions

我一直在寻找一种方式来回馈社区我所开发的一些东西。

这里有一些FileInfo扩展，我觉得非常有用。

/// <summary>
/// Open with default 'open' program
/// </summary>
/// <param name="value"></param>
public static Process Open(this FileInfo value)
{
    if (!value.Exists)
        throw new FileNotFoundException("File doesn't exist");
    Process p = new Process();
    p.StartInfo.FileName = value.FullName;
    p.StartInfo.Verb = "Open";
    p.Start();
    return p;
}

/// <summary>
/// Print the file
/// </summary>
/// <param name="value"></param>
public static void Print(this FileInfo value)
{
    if (!value.Exists)
        throw new FileNotFoundException("File doesn't exist");
    Process p = new Process();
    p.StartInfo.FileName = value.FullName;
    p.StartInfo.Verb = "Print";
    p.Start();
}

/// <summary>
/// Send this file to the Recycle Bin
/// </summary>
/// <exception cref="File doesn't exist" />
/// <param name="value"></param>
public static void Recycle(this FileInfo value)
{        
    value.Recycle(false);
}

/// <summary>
/// Send this file to the Recycle Bin
/// On show, if person refuses to send file to the recycle bin, 
/// exception is thrown or otherwise delete fails
/// </summary>
/// <exception cref="File doesn't exist" />
/// <exception cref="On show, if user refuses, throws exception 'The operation was canceled.'" />
/// <param name="value">File being recycled</param>
/// <param name="showDialog">true to show pop-up</param>
public static void Recycle(this FileInfo value, bool showDialog)
{
    if (!value.Exists)
            throw new FileNotFoundException("File doesn't exist");
    if( showDialog )
        FileSystem.DeleteFile
            (value.FullName, UIOption.AllDialogs, 
            RecycleOption.SendToRecycleBin);
    else
        FileSystem.DeleteFile
            (value.FullName, UIOption.OnlyErrorDialogs, 
            RecycleOption.SendToRecycleBin);
}

在用户喜欢的编辑器中打开任意文件:

new FileInfo("C:\image.jpg").Open();

打印任何操作系统知道如何打印的文件:

new FileInfo("C:\image.jpg").Print();

将任何文件发送到回收站:

你必须包括微软。VisualBasic参考 使用Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO;

例子:

new FileInfo("C:\image.jpg").Recycle();

Or

// let user have a chance to cancel send to recycle bin.
new FileInfo("C:\image.jpg").Recycle(true);

一些DataSet/DataRow扩展，使使用db结果更简单

只需在DataRow上使用. field ("fieldname")，如果可以，它将强制转换它，可选的默认值可以包括在内。

还有DataSet上的. hasrows()，这样你就不需要检查表和行的存在。

例子:

using (DataSet ds = yourcall()) 
{
  if (ds.HasRows())
  {
     foreach (DataRow dr in ds.Tables[0].Rows)
     {
        int id = dr.Field<int>("ID");
        string name = dr.Field<string>("Name");
        string Action = dr.Field<string>("Action", "N/A");
     }
  }
}

代码:

using System;
using System.Data;

public static class DataSetExtensions
{
    public static T Field<T>(this DataRow row, string columnName, T defaultValue)
    {
        try
        {
            return row.Field<T>(columnName);
        }
        catch
        {
            return defaultValue;
        }
    }

    public static T Field<T>(this DataRow row, string columnName)
    {
        if (row[columnName] == null)
            throw new NullReferenceException(columnName + " does not exist in DataRow");

        string value = row[columnName].ToString();

        if (typeof(T) == "".GetType())
        {
            return (T)Convert.ChangeType(value, typeof(T));
        }
        else if (typeof(T) == 0.GetType())
        {
            return (T)Convert.ChangeType(int.Parse(value), typeof(T));
        }
        else if (typeof(T) == false.GetType())
        {
            return (T)Convert.ChangeType(bool.Parse(value), typeof(T));
        }
        else if (typeof(T) == DateTime.Now.GetType())
        {
            return (T)Convert.ChangeType(DateTime.Parse(value), typeof(T));
        }
        else if (typeof(T) == new byte().GetType())
        {
            return (T)Convert.ChangeType(byte.Parse(value), typeof(T));
        }
        else if (typeof(T) == new float().GetType())
        {
            return (T)Convert.ChangeType(float.Parse(value), typeof(T));
        }
        else
        {
            throw new ArgumentException(string.Format("Cannot cast '{0}' to '{1}'.", value, typeof(T).ToString()));
        }
    }

    public static bool HasRows(this DataSet dataSet) 
    {
        return (dataSet.Tables.Count > 0 && dataSet.Tables[0].Rows.Count > 0);
    }
}

NullPartial用于ASP MVC的HTML helper。

当传递一个空模型时，HTML。Partial和HTML。RenderPartial将提供视图的模型，如果这个部分是强类型的，而视图有不同的类型，它将抛出一个异常，而不是传递一个空引用。这些帮助程序允许您指定两个不同的部分，这样您就可以将空测试排除在视图之外。

您有权在Codeplex页面上包含此内容

public static class nullpartials
    {
        public static MvcHtmlString NullPartial(this HtmlHelper helper, string Partial, string NullPartial, object Model)
        {
            if (Model == null)
                return helper.Partial(NullPartial);
            else
                return helper.Partial(Partial, Model);
        }

        public static MvcHtmlString NullPartial(this HtmlHelper helper, string Partial, string NullPartial, object Model, ViewDataDictionary viewdata)
        {
            if (Model == null)
                return helper.Partial(NullPartial, viewdata);
            else
                return helper.Partial(Partial, Model, viewdata);
        }

        public static void RenderNullPartial(this HtmlHelper helper, string Partial, string NullPartial, object Model)
        {
            if (Model == null)
            {
                helper.RenderPartial(NullPartial);
                return;
            }
            else
            {
                helper.RenderPartial(Partial, Model);
                return;
            }
        }

        public static void RenderNullPartial(this HtmlHelper helper, string Partial, string NullPartial, object Model, ViewDataDictionary viewdata)
        {
            if (Model == null)
            {
                helper.RenderPartial(NullPartial, viewdata);
                return;
            }
            else
            {
                helper.RenderPartial(Partial, Model, viewdata);
                return;
            }
        }
    }

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, ", ");

我的建议:

public static bool IsNullOrEmpty(this ICollection obj)
{
  return (obj == null || obj.Count == 0);
}

使用集合和数组:

bool isNullOrEmpty = array.IsNullOrEmpty()

而不是

bool isNullOrEmpty = array == null || array.Length == 0;
