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。

我已经实现了一个扩展方法包(在http://foop.codeplex.com/上可用)，其中一些是我日常使用的:

// the most beloved extension method for me is Pipe:
<%= variable.Pipe(x => this.SomeFunction(x)).Pipe(y =>
{
    ...;
    return this.SomeOtherFunction(y);
}) %>

var d = 28.December(2009); // some extension methods for creating DateTime
DateTime justDatePart = d.JustDate();
TimeSpan justTimePart = d.JustTime();
var nextTime = d.Add(5.Hours());

using(StreamReader reader = new StreamReader("lines-of-data-file-for-example")) {
    ...
    // for reading streams line by line and usable in LINQ
    var query = from line in reader.Lines(); 
                where line.Contains(_today)
                select new { Parts = PartsOf(line), Time = _now };
}

500.Sleep();

XmlSerialize and XmlDeserialize

IsNull and IsNotNull

IfTrue, IfFalse and Iff:
true.IfTrue(() => Console.WriteLine("it is true then!");

IfNull and IfNotNull

我厌倦了乏味的空检查，而拉值从MySqlDataReader，所以:

public static DateTime? GetNullableDateTime(this MySqlDataReader dr, string fieldName)
{
    DateTime? nullDate = null;
    return dr.IsDBNull(dr.GetOrdinal(fieldName)) ? nullDate : dr.GetDateTime(fieldName);
}

public static string GetNullableString(this MySqlDataReader dr, string fieldName)
{
    return dr.IsDBNull(dr.GetOrdinal(fieldName)) ? String.Empty : dr.GetString(fieldName);
}

public static char? GetNullableChar(this MySqlDataReader dr, string fieldName)
{
    char? nullChar = null;
    return dr.IsDBNull(dr.GetOrdinal(fieldName)) ? nullChar : dr.GetChar(fieldName);
}

当然，这可以用于任何SqlDataReader。

hangy和Joe都对如何做到这一点提出了一些很好的意见，我也有机会在不同的环境中实现类似的东西，所以这里是另一个版本:

public static int? GetNullableInt32(this IDataRecord dr, int ordinal)
{
    int? nullInt = null;
    return dr.IsDBNull(ordinal) ? nullInt : dr.GetInt32(ordinal);
}

public static int? GetNullableInt32(this IDataRecord dr, string fieldname)
{
    int ordinal = dr.GetOrdinal(fieldname);
    return dr.GetNullableInt32(ordinal);
}

public static bool? GetNullableBoolean(this IDataRecord dr, int ordinal)
{
    bool? nullBool = null;
    return dr.IsDBNull(ordinal) ? nullBool : dr.GetBoolean(ordinal);
}

public static bool? GetNullableBoolean(this IDataRecord dr, string fieldname)
{
    int ordinal = dr.GetOrdinal(fieldname);
    return dr.GetNullableBoolean(ordinal);
}

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();

我的建议:

public static bool IsNullOrEmpty(this ICollection obj)
{
  return (obj == null || obj.Count == 0);
}

使用集合和数组:

bool isNullOrEmpty = array.IsNullOrEmpty()

而不是

bool isNullOrEmpty = array == null || array.Length == 0;
