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>();

简单但比“可枚举”更好。范围”,恕我直言:

/// <summary>
/// Replace "Enumerable.Range(n)" with "n.Range()":
/// </summary>
/// <param name="n">iterations</param>
/// <returns>0..n-1</returns>
public static IEnumerable<int> Range(this int n)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        yield return i;
}

下面是我们工作代码库中的一个有趣的例子。在作业线程上遍历一个昂贵的lazy-eval枚举对象，并通过一个可观察对象推回结果。

public static IObservable<T> ToAsyncObservable<T>(this IEnumerable<T> @this)
{
    return Observable.Create<T>(observer =>
    {
        var task = new Task(() =>
        {
            try
            {
                @this.Run(observer.OnNext);
                observer.OnCompleted();
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                observer.OnError(e);
            }
        });

        task.Start();

        return () => { };
    });
}

愚蠢的示例:

new DirectoryInfo(@"c:\program files")
    .EnumerateFiles("*", SearchOption.AllDirectories)
    .ToAsyncObservable()
    .BufferWithTime(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(0.5))
    .ObserveOnDispatcher()
    .Subscribe(
        l => Console.WriteLine("{0} received", l.Count),
        () => Console.WriteLine("Done!"));

for (;;)
{
    Thread.Sleep(10);
    Dispatcher.PushFrame(new DispatcherFrame());
}

显然，这个扩展将是无用的，如果你不使用辉煌的响应式扩展!

感谢评论中的Richard，这个扩展方法是不必要的。RX已经有一个扩展方法“tooobservable”，它接受IScheduler。那就用这个吧!

这个还没有完全烤熟因为我们今天早上才想到。它将为Type生成一个完整的类定义。当您有一个大型类，想要创建一个子集或完整定义，但无法访问它的情况下非常有用。例如，将对象存储在数据库中等等。

public static class TypeExtensions
{
    public static string GenerateClassDefinition(this Type type)
    {
        var properties = type.GetFields();
        var sb = new StringBuilder();
        var classtext = @"private class $name
        {
         $props}";

        foreach (var p in GetTypeInfo(type))
        {
            sb.AppendFormat("  public {0} {1} ", p.Item2, p.Item1).AppendLine(" { get; set; }");
        }

        return classtext.Replace("$name", type.Name).Replace("$props", sb.ToString());
    }

    #region Private Methods
    private static List<Tuple<string, string>> GetTypeInfo(Type type)
    {
        var ret = new List<Tuple<string, string>>();
        var fields = type.GetFields();
        var props = type.GetProperties();

        foreach(var p in props) ret.Add(new Tuple<string, string>(p.Name, TranslateType(p.PropertyType)));    
        foreach(var f in fields) ret.Add(new Tuple<string, string>(f.Name, TranslateType(f.FieldType)));

        return ret;
    }


    private static string TranslateType(Type input)
    {
        string ret;

        if (Nullable.GetUnderlyingType(input) != null)
        {
            ret = string.Format("{0}?", TranslateType(Nullable.GetUnderlyingType(input)));
        }
        else
        {
            switch (input.Name)
            {
                case "Int32": ret = "int"; break;
                case "Int64": ret = "long"; break;
                case "IntPtr": ret = "long"; break;
                case "Boolean": ret = "bool"; break;
                case "String":
                case "Char":
                case "Decimal":
                    ret = input.Name.ToLower(); break;
                default: ret = input.Name; break;
            }
        }

        return ret;
    }
    #endregion
}

使用示例:

Process.GetProcesses().First().GetType().GenerateClassDefinition();

如果使用linqpad，变得更加方便:

Process.GetProcesses().First().GetType().GenerateClassDefinition().Dump();

这是另一双我觉得用不完的鞋:

public static T ObjectWithMin<T, TResult>(this IEnumerable<T> sequence, Func<T, TResult> predicate)
    where T : class
    where TResult : IComparable
{
    if (!sequence.Any()) return null;

    //get the first object with its predicate value
    var seed = sequence.Select(x => new {Object = x, Value = predicate(x)}).FirstOrDefault();
    //compare against all others, replacing the accumulator with the lesser value
    //tie goes to first object found
    return
        sequence.Select(x => new {Object = x, Value = predicate(x)})
            .Aggregate(seed,(acc, x) => acc.Value.CompareTo(x.Value) <= 0 ? acc : x).Object;
}

public static T ObjectWithMax<T, TResult>(this IEnumerable<T> sequence, Func<T, TResult> predicate)
    where T : class
    where TResult : IComparable
{
    if (!sequence.Any()) return null;

    //get the first object with its predicate value
    var seed = sequence.Select(x => new {Object = x, Value = predicate(x)}).FirstOrDefault();
    //compare against all others, replacing the accumulator with the greater value
    //tie goes to last object found
    return
        sequence.Select(x => new {Object = x, Value = predicate(x)})
            .Aggregate(seed, (acc, x) => acc.Value.CompareTo(x.Value) > 0 ? acc : x).Object;
}

用法:

var myObject = myList.ObjectWithMin(x=>x.PropA);

这些方法基本上取代了像

var myObject = myList.OrderBy(x=>x.PropA).FirstOrDefault(); //O(nlog(n)) and unstable

and

var myObject = myList.Where(x=>x.PropA == myList.Min(x=>x.PropA)).FirstOrDefault(); //O(N^2) but stable

and

var minValue = myList.Min(x=>x.PropA);
var myObject = myList.Where(x=>x.PropA == minValue).FirstOrDefault(); //not a one-liner, and though linear and stable it's slower (evaluates the enumerable twice)

灵感来自弦。IsNullOrEmpty

要验证给定的List为空或空

public static bool IsNullOrEmpty<TSource>(this List<TSource> src)
{            
    return (src == null || src.Count == 0);
}

这个是验证给定的两个文件和属性

public static bool Compare(this FileInfo f1, FileInfo f2, string propertyName)
{
    try
    {
        PropertyInfo p1 = f1.GetType().GetProperty(propertyName);
        PropertyInfo p2 = f2.GetType().GetProperty(propertyName);

        if (p1.GetValue(f1, null) == p2.GetValue(f1, null))
            return true;
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        return false;
    }
    return false;
}

像这样使用它

FileInfo fo = new FileInfo("c:\\netlog.txt");
FileInfo f1 = new FileInfo("c:\\regkey.txt");

fo.compare(f1, "CreationTime");
