The Substring method on the string class has always felt inadequate to me. Usually when you do a substring, you know the character(s) from where you want to start, and the charachter(s) where you want to end. Thus, I've always felt that have to specify length as the second parameter is stupid. Therefore, I've written my own extension methods. One that takes a startIndex and an endIndex. And one, that takes a startText (string) and endText (string) so you can just specify the text from where to start the substring, and the text for where to end it.

注意:我不能将方法命名为。net中的Substring，因为我的第一个重载采用了与。net重载中的一个相同的参数类型。因此我将它们命名为Subsetstring。请随意添加到CodePlex…

public static class StringExtensions
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Returns a Subset string starting at the specified start index and ending and the specified end
    /// index.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="s">The string to retrieve the subset from.</param>
    /// <param name="startIndex">The specified start index for the subset.</param>
    /// <param name="endIndex">The specified end index for the subset.</param>
    /// <returns>A Subset string starting at the specified start index and ending and the specified end
    /// index.</returns>
    public static string Subsetstring(this string s, int startIndex, int endIndex)
    {
        if (startIndex > endIndex)
        {
            throw new InvalidOperationException("End Index must be after Start Index.");
        }

        if (startIndex < 0)
        {
            throw new InvalidOperationException("Start Index must be a positive number.");
        }

        if(endIndex <0)
        {
            throw new InvalidOperationException("End Index must be a positive number.");
        }

        return s.Substring(startIndex, (endIndex - startIndex));
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Finds the specified Start Text and the End Text in this string instance, and returns a string
    /// containing all the text starting from startText, to the begining of endText. (endText is not
    /// included.)
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="s">The string to retrieve the subset from.</param>
    /// <param name="startText">The Start Text to begin the Subset from.</param>
    /// <param name="endText">The End Text to where the Subset goes to.</param>
    /// <param name="ignoreCase">Whether or not to ignore case when comparing startText/endText to the string.</param>
    /// <returns>A string containing all the text starting from startText, to the begining of endText.</returns>
    public static string Subsetstring(this string s, string startText, string endText, bool ignoreCase)
    {
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(startText) || string.IsNullOrEmpty(endText))
        {
            throw new ArgumentException("Start Text and End Text cannot be empty.");
        }
        string temp = s;
        if (ignoreCase)
        {
            temp = s.ToUpperInvariant();
            startText = startText.ToUpperInvariant();
            endText = endText.ToUpperInvariant();
        }
        int start = temp.IndexOf(startText);
        int end = temp.IndexOf(endText, start);
        return Subsetstring(s, start, end);
    }
}

用法:

string s = "This is a tester for my cool extension method!!";
       s = s.Subsetstring("tester", "cool",true);

输出:"test for my "

我的转换扩展，允许你做:

int i = myString.To<int>();

这是在TheSoftwareJedi.com上发布的

public static T To<T>(this IConvertible obj)
{
  return (T)Convert.ChangeType(obj, typeof(T));
}

public static T ToOrDefault<T>
             (this IConvertible obj)
{
    try
    {
        return To<T>(obj);
    }
    catch
    {
        return default(T);
    }
}

public static bool ToOrDefault<T>
                    (this IConvertible obj,
                     out T newObj)
{
    try
    {
        newObj = To<T>(obj); 
        return true;
    }
    catch
    {
        newObj = default(T); 
        return false;
    }
}

public static T ToOrOther<T>
                       (this IConvertible obj,
                       T other)
{
  try
  {
      return To<T>obj);
  }
  catch
  {
      return other;
  }
}

public static bool ToOrOther<T>
                         (this IConvertible obj,
                         out T newObj,
                         T other)
{
    try
    {
        newObj = To<T>(obj);
        return true;
    }
    catch
    {
        newObj = other;
        return false;
    }
}

public static T ToOrNull<T>
                      (this IConvertible obj)
                      where T : class
{
    try
    {
        return To<T>(obj);
    }
    catch
    {
        return null;
    }
}

public static bool ToOrNull<T>
                  (this IConvertible obj,
                  out T newObj)
                  where T : class
{
    try
    {
        newObj = To<T>(obj);
        return true;
    }
    catch
    {
        newObj = null;
        return false;
    }
}

您可以在失败时请求default(调用空白构造函数或“0”作为数字)，指定一个“default”值(我称之为“other”)，或请求null(其中T: class)。我还提供了两个静默异常模型和一个典型的TryParse模型，该模型返回一个bool值，指示所采取的操作，一个out参数保存新值。 我们的代码可以这样做

int i = myString.To<int>();
string a = myInt.ToOrDefault<string>();
//note type inference
DateTime d = myString.ToOrOther(DateTime.MAX_VALUE);
double d;
//note type inference
bool didItGiveDefault = myString.ToOrDefault(out d);
string s = myDateTime.ToOrNull<string>();

我不能让Nullable类型非常干净地滚入整个东西。我试了大约20分钟才认输。

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);
    }
}

日期时间扩展

例子:

DateTime firstDayOfMonth = DateTime.Now.First();
DateTime lastdayOfMonth = DateTime.Now.Last();
DateTime lastFridayInMonth = DateTime.Now.Last(DayOfWeek.Friday);
DateTime nextFriday = DateTime.Now.Next(DayOfWeek.Friday);
DateTime lunchTime = DateTime.Now.SetTime(11, 30);
DateTime noonOnFriday = DateTime.Now.Next(DayOfWeek.Friday).Noon();
DateTime secondMondayOfMonth = DateTime.Now.First(DayOfWeek.Monday).Next(DayOfWeek.Monday).Midnight();

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。

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" } });
