下面是我用来减少提取单个属性的一些方法:

public static T GetAttribute<T>(this ICustomAttributeProvider provider, bool inherit = false, int index = 0) where T : Attribute
{
    return provider.GetAttribute(typeof(T), inherit, index) as T;
}

public static Attribute GetAttribute(this ICustomAttributeProvider provider, Type type, bool inherit = false, int index = 0)
{
    bool exists = provider.IsDefined(type, inherit);
    if (!exists)
    {
        return null;
    }

    object[] attributes = provider.GetCustomAttributes(type, inherit);
    if (attributes != null && attributes.Length != 0)
    {
        return attributes[index] as Attribute;
    }
    else
    {
        return null;
    }
}

用法(枚举描述hack的实现):

public static string GetDescription(this Enum value)
{
    var fieldInfo = value.GetType().GetField(value.ToString());
    var attribute = fieldInfo.GetAttribute<DescriptionAttribute>();
    return attribute != null ? attribute.Description : null;
}

请随意将其包含在CodePlex项目中!

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!";

到目前为止，我刚刚浏览了所有4页，我很惊讶，我没有看到这种方式来缩短检查InvokeRequired:

using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;

/// <summary>
/// Extension methods acting on Control objects.
/// </summary>
internal static class ControlExtensionMethods
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Invokes the given action on the given control's UI thread, if invocation is needed.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="control">Control on whose UI thread to possibly invoke.</param>
    /// <param name="action">Action to be invoked on the given control.</param>
    public static void MaybeInvoke(this Control control, Action action)
    {
        if (control != null && control.InvokeRequired)
        {
            control.Invoke(action);
        }
        else
        {
            action();
        }
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Maybe Invoke a Func that returns a value.
    /// </summary>
    /// <typeparam name="T">Return type of func.</typeparam>
    /// <param name="control">Control on which to maybe invoke.</param>
    /// <param name="func">Function returning a value, to invoke.</param>
    /// <returns>The result of the call to func.</returns>
    public static T MaybeInvoke<T>(this Control control, Func<T> func)
    {
        if (control != null && control.InvokeRequired)
        {
            return (T)(control.Invoke(func));
        }
        else
        {
            return func();
        }
    }
}

用法:

myForm.MaybeInvoke(() => this.Text = "Hello world");

// Sometimes the control might be null, but that's okay.
var dialogResult = this.Parent.MaybeInvoke(() => MessageBox.Show(this, "Yes or no?", "Choice", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo));

也许我写过和用过的最有用的扩展方法是:

有时使用自定义分隔符在列表中选中的元素上写出字符串是很方便的。

例如，如果你有一个List<Person>并且想要用逗号分隔姓氏，你可以这样做。

string result = string.Empty;
foreach (var person in personList) {
   result += person.LastName + ", ";
}
result = result.Substring(0, result.Length - 2);
return result;

或者你可以使用这个方便的扩展方法

public static string Join<T>(this IEnumerable<T> collection, Func<T, string> func, string separator)
{
  return String.Join(separator, collection.Select(func).ToArray());
}

像这样使用它

personList.Join(x => x.LastName, ", ");

这将产生相同的结果，在本例中是由逗号分隔的姓氏列表。

与时间跨度相关的扩展，如:

public static TimeSpan Seconds(this int seconds)
{
  return TimeSpan.FromSeconds(seconds);
}

public static TimeSpan Minutes(this int minutes)
{
  return TimeSpan.FromMinutes(minutes);
}

允许使用:

1.Seconds()
20.Minutes()

像这样的锁定扩展:

public static IDisposable GetReadLock(this ReaderWriterLockSlim slimLock)
{
  slimLock.EnterReadLock();
  return new DisposableAction(slimLock.ExitReadLock);
}

public static IDisposable GetWriteLock(this ReaderWriterLockSlim slimLock)
{
  slimLock.EnterWriteLock();
  return new DisposableAction(slimLock.ExitWriteLock);
}

public static IDisposable GetUpgradeableReadLock(this ReaderWriterLockSlim slimLock)
{
  slimLock.EnterUpgradeableReadLock();
  return new DisposableAction(slimLock.ExitUpgradeableReadLock);
}

允许使用像这样的锁:

using (lock.GetUpgradeableReadLock())
{
  // try read
  using (lock.GetWriteLock())
  {
    //do write
  }
}
