简明扼要地提出事件:

public static void Raise(this EventHandler handler, object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (handler != null)
    {
        handler(sender, e);
    }
}

public static void Raise<T>(this EventHandler<T> handler, object sender, T e) where T : EventArgs
{
    if (handler != null)
    {
        handler(sender, e);
    }
}

用法:

public event EventHandler Bar;

public void Foo()
{
    Bar.Raise(this, EventArgs.Empty);
}

这里有一些关于潜在线程安全问题的讨论。从。net 4开始，上面的表单是线程安全的，但如果使用旧版本，则需要重新排列和一些锁。

我使用以下扩展来扩展所有的集合(也许有人发现这些有用):

        @this[IndexB] = Temp;
        return @this;
    }

        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。

另一个对我有用的是:

/// <summary>
/// Converts any type in to an Int32
/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="T">Any Object</typeparam>
/// <param name="value">Value to convert</param>
/// <returns>The integer, 0 if unsuccessful</returns>
public static int ToInt32<T>(this T value)
{
  int result;
  if (int.TryParse(value.ToString(), out result))
  {
    return result;
  }
  return 0;
}

/// <summary>
/// Converts any type in to an Int32 but if null then returns the default
/// </summary>
/// <param name="value">Value to convert</param>
/// <typeparam name="T">Any Object</typeparam>
/// <param name="defaultValue">Default to use</param>
/// <returns>The defaultValue if unsuccessful</returns>
public static int ToInt32<T>(this T value, int defaultValue)
{
  int result;
  if (int.TryParse(value.ToString(), out result))
  {
    return result;
  }
  return defaultValue;
}

例子:

int number = "123".ToInt32();

or:

int badNumber = "a".ToInt32(100); // Returns 100 since a is nan

我在我的web项目中使用这些，主要是MVC。我为ViewData和TempData写了一些这样的代码

/// <summary>
/// Checks the Request.QueryString for the specified value and returns it, if none 
/// is found then the default value is returned instead
/// </summary>
public static T QueryValue<T>(this HtmlHelper helper, string param, T defaultValue) {
    object value = HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString[param] as object;
    if (value == null) { return defaultValue; }
    try {
        return (T)Convert.ChangeType(value, typeof(T));
    } catch (Exception) {
        return defaultValue;
    }
}

这样我就可以写……

<% if (Html.QueryValue("login", false)) { %>
    <div>Welcome Back!</div>

<% } else { %>
    <%-- Render the control or something --%>

<% } %>

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);
