有几次我发现自己想要Groovy的“安全导航”之类的东西。

从http://groovy.codehaus.org/Statements:

如果你在行走一个复杂的物体 图和不想要的 你可以抛出nullpointerexception 使用?。操作员而不是。来 执行导航。 Def foo = null Def bar = .myMethod()断言条 = =零

那么，您认为为它添加扩展方法是一个好主意吗? 喜欢的东西:

obj.SafelyNavigate(x => x.SomeProperty.MaybeAMethod().AnotherProperty);

我认为即使它也会带来一些麻烦，这也很好。

如果你认为这是个好主意:

您认为值类型应该发生什么?， 返回默认吗?扔吗?，通过泛型约束禁用它? 吞咽NullReferenceException来实现它会太冒险吗?， 你有什么建议?， 遍历表达式树执行每个调用或成员访问似乎很困难，而且有点过度(如果可能的话)，不是吗?

也许这只是一个坏主意:D，但我认为如果做得对，它是有用的。 如果没有类似的东西，你认为它有一些价值，我可能会给它一个机会，然后编辑答案。

比较两个对象的相等性，而不必重写Equals或实现IEquatable<>。

你为什么要这么做?当你真的想知道两个对象是否相等，但你懒得重写Equals(object)或实现IEquatable<T>。或者，更现实地说，如果您有一个非常复杂的类，手工实现Equals将非常乏味、容易出错，维护起来也不有趣。如果您不太关心性能，它也会有所帮助。

我目前使用IsEqualTo是因为第二个原因——我有一个具有许多属性的类，这些属性的类型是其他用户定义的类，每个类都有许多其他属性，这些属性的类型是其他用户定义的类，一直到无限。在许多这样的类中加入一堆集合，实现Equals(object)真的变成了一场噩梦。

用法:

if (myTerriblyComplexObject.IsEqualTo(myOtherTerriblyComplexObject))
{
    // Do something terribly interesting.
}

为了确定相等，我做了很多比较。我尽一切努力按照“正确”的顺序做“正确”的事。比较顺序如下:

Use the static Equals(object, object) method. If it returns true, return true. It will return true if the references are the same. It will also return true if thisObject overrides Equals(object). If thisObject is null, return false. No further comparisons can be made if it is null. If thisObject has overridden Equals(object), return false. Since it overrides Equals, it must mean that Equals was executed at step #1 and returned false. If someone has bothered to override Equals, we should respect that and return what Equals returns. If thisObject inherits from IEquatable<T>, where otherObject can be assigned to T, get the Equals(T) method using reflection. Invoke that method and return its return value. If both objects are IEnumerable, return whether contain the same items, in the same order, using IsEqualTo to compare the items. If the objects have different types, return false. Since we know now that thisObject does not have an Equals method, there isn't any way to realistically evaluate two object of different types to be true. If the objects are a value type (primitive or struct) or a string, return false. We have already failed the Equals(object) test - enough said. For each property of thisObject, test its value with IsEqualTo. If any return false, return false. If all return true, return true.

字符串比较可能更好，但很容易实现。此外，我不能100%确定我处理结构正确。

话不多说，下面是扩展方法:

/// <summary>
/// Provides extension methods to determine if objects are equal.
/// </summary>
public static class EqualsEx
{
    /// <summary>

    public static bool IsEqualTo(this object thisObject, object otherObject)
    {
        if (Equals(thisObject, otherObject))
        {
            // Always check Equals first. If the object has overridden Equals, use it. This will also capture the case where both are the same reference.
            return true;
        }

        if (thisObject == null)
        {
            // Because Equals(object, object) returns true if both are null, if either is null, return false.
            return false;
        }

        var thisObjectType = thisObject.GetType();
        var equalsMethod = thisObjectType.GetMethod("Equals", BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance, null, new[] { ObjectType }, null);
        if (equalsMethod.DeclaringType == thisObjectType)
        {
            // thisObject overrides Equals, and we have already failed the Equals test, so return false.
            return false;
        }

        var otherObjectType = otherObject == null ? null : otherObject.GetType();

        // If thisObject inherits from IEquatable<>, and otherObject can be passed into its Equals method, use it.
        var equatableTypes = thisObjectType.GetInterfaces().Where(                                          // Get interfaces of thisObjectType that...
            i => i.IsGenericType                                                                            // ...are generic...
            && i.GetGenericTypeDefinition() == EquatableType                                                // ...and are IEquatable of some type...
            && (otherObjectType ==  null || i.GetGenericArguments()[0].IsAssignableFrom(otherObjectType))); // ...and otherObjectType can be assigned to the IEquatable's type.

        if (equatableTypes.Any())
        {
            // If we found any interfaces that meed our criteria, invoke the Equals method for each interface.
            // If any return true, return true. If all return false, return false.
            return equatableTypes
                .Select(equatableType => equatableType.GetMethod("Equals", BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance))
                .Any(equatableEqualsMethod => (bool)equatableEqualsMethod.Invoke(thisObject, new[] { otherObject }));
        }

        if (thisObjectType != StringType && thisObject is IEnumerable && otherObject is IEnumerable)
        {
            // If both are IEnumerable, check their items.
            var thisEnumerable = ((IEnumerable)thisObject).Cast<object>();
            var otherEnumerable = ((IEnumerable)otherObject).Cast<object>();

            return thisEnumerable.SequenceEqual(otherEnumerable, IsEqualToComparer.Instance);

        return !(from propertyInfo in thisObjectType.GetProperties()
                 let thisPropertyValue = propertyInfo.GetValue(thisObject, null)
                 let otherPropertyValue = propertyInfo.GetValue(otherObject, null)

从集合中加载默认设置的一种更简单的方法(在现实生活中，我使用它来填充来自任何来源的设置，包括命令行，ClickOnce URL参数等):

public static void LoadFrom(this ApplicationSettingsBase settings, NameValueCollection configuration)
{
    if (configuration != null)
        foreach (string key in configuration.AllKeys)
            if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(key))
                try
                {
                    settings[key] = configuration.Get(key);
                }
                catch (SettingsPropertyNotFoundException)
                {
                  // handle bad arguments as you wish
                }
}

例子:

Settings.Default.LoadFrom(new NameValueCollection() { { "Setting1", "Value1" }, { "Setting2", "Value2" } });

public static class StringExtensions {

    /// <summary>
    /// Parses a string into an Enum
    /// </summary>
    /// <typeparam name="T">The type of the Enum</typeparam>
    /// <param name="value">String value to parse</param>
    /// <returns>The Enum corresponding to the stringExtensions</returns>
    public static T EnumParse<T>(this string value) {
        return StringExtensions.EnumParse<T>(value, false);
    }

    public static T EnumParse<T>(this string value, bool ignorecase) {

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

        value = value.Trim();

        if (value.Length == 0) {
            throw new ArgumentException("Must specify valid information for parsing in the string.", "value");
        }

        Type t = typeof(T);

        if (!t.IsEnum) {
            throw new ArgumentException("Type provided must be an Enum.", "T");
        }

        return (T)Enum.Parse(t, value, ignorecase);
    }
}

将字符串解析为Enum很有用。

public enum TestEnum
{
    Bar,
    Test
}

public class Test
{
    public void Test()
    {
        TestEnum foo = "Test".EnumParse<TestEnum>();
    }
 }

这要归功于斯科特·多尔曼

——编辑Codeplex项目——

我问过Scott Dorman，他是否介意我们在Codeplex项目中发布他的代码。我从他那里得到的回答是:

感谢你对SO帖子和CodePlex项目的提醒。我赞成你对这个问题的回答。是的，代码目前在CodeProject开放许可证(http://www.codeproject.com/info/cpol10.aspx)下有效地处于公共领域。 我没有问题，这被包括在CodePlex项目，如果你想把我添加到项目(用户名是sdorman)，我会添加该方法加上一些额外的枚举助手方法。

我相信以前有人这样做过，但我发现自己经常使用这种方法(和更简单的导数):

public static bool CompareEx(this string strA, string strB, CultureInfo culture, bool ignoreCase)
{
    return string.Compare(strA, strB, ignoreCase, culture) == 0;
}

您可以以多种方式编写它，但我喜欢它，因为它非常快速地统一了比较字符串的方法，同时节省了代码行数(或代码字符)。

扩展方法:

public static void AddRange<T, S>(this ICollection<T> list, params S[] values)
    where S : T
{
    foreach (S value in values)
        list.Add(value);
}

该方法适用于所有类型，并允许您将一系列项作为参数添加到列表中。

例子:

var list = new List<Int32>();
list.AddRange(5, 4, 8, 4, 2);
