当前回答

我发现自己一遍又一遍地这样做……

public static bool EqualsIgnoreCase(this string a, string b)
{
    return string.Equals(a, b, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase);
}

...然后是StartsWithIgnoreCase, EndsWithIgnoreCase和ContainsIgnoreCase。

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

我创建了一个漂亮的Each扩展,具有与jQuery的Each函数相同的行为。

它允许如下所示,你可以获得当前值的索引,并通过返回false跳出循环:

new[] { "first", "second", "third" }.Each((value, index) =>
{
    if (value.Contains("d"))
        return false;
    Console.Write(value);
    return true;
});

下面是代码

/// <summary>
/// Generic iterator function that is useful to replace a foreach loop with at your discretion.  A provided action is performed on each element.
/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="T"></typeparam>
/// <param name="source"></param>
/// <param name="action">Function that takes in the current value in the sequence. 
/// <returns></returns>
public static IEnumerable<T> Each<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source, Action<T> action)
{
    return source.Each((value, index) =>
    {
        action(value);
        return true;
    });
}


/// <summary>
/// Generic iterator function that is useful to replace a foreach loop with at your discretion.  A provided action is performed on each element.
/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="T"></typeparam>
/// <param name="source"></param>
/// <param name="action">Function that takes in the current value and its index in the sequence.  
/// <returns></returns>
public static IEnumerable<T> Each<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source, Action<T, int> action)
{
    return source.Each((value, index) =>
    {
        action(value, index);
        return true;
    });
}

/// <summary>

/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="T"></typeparam>
/// <param name="source"></param>
/// <param name="action">Function that takes in the current value in the sequence.  Returns a value indicating whether the iteration should continue.  So return false if you don't want to iterate anymore.</param>
/// <returns></returns>
public static IEnumerable<T> Each<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source, Func<T, bool> action)
{
    return source.Each((value, index) =>
    {
        return action(value);
    });
}

/// <summary>

/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="T"></typeparam>

/// <returns></returns>
public static IEnumerable<T> Each<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source, Func<T, int, bool> action)
{
    if (source == null)
        return source;

    int index = 0;
    foreach (var sourceItem in source)
    {
        if (!action(sourceItem, index))
            break;
        index++;
    }
    return source;
}

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();

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。

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
  }
}
