这里的大多数答案似乎都没有抓住重点。多态性不仅可以在实例之间使用，还可以在类型之间使用。当我们使用泛型时，这是经常需要的。
假设我们在泛型方法中有类型参数，我们需要对它做一些操作。我们不想实例化，因为我们不知道构造函数。
例如:
Repository GetRepository<T>()
{
//need to call T.IsQueryable, but can't!!!
//need to call T.RowCount
//need to call T.DoSomeStaticMath(int param)
}
...
var r = GetRepository<Customer>()
不幸的是，我只能想出一些“丑陋”的选择:
Use reflection
Ugly and beats the idea of interfaces and polymorphism.
Create completely separate factory class
This might greatly increase the complexity of the code. For example, if we are trying to model domain objects, each object would need another repository class.
Instantiate and then call the desired interface method
This can be hard to implement even if we control the source for the classes, used as generic parameters. The reason is that, for example we might need the instances to be only in well-known, "connected to DB" state.
例子:
public class Customer
{
//create new customer
public Customer(Transaction t) { ... }
//open existing customer
public Customer(Transaction t, int id) { ... }
void SomeOtherMethod()
{
//do work...
}
}
为了使用实例化来解决静态接口问题，我们需要做以下事情:
public class Customer: IDoSomeStaticMath
{
//create new customer
public Customer(Transaction t) { ... }
//open existing customer
public Customer(Transaction t, int id) { ... }
//dummy instance
public Customer() { IsDummy = true; }
int DoSomeStaticMath(int a) { }
void SomeOtherMethod()
{
if(!IsDummy)
{
//do work...
}
}
}
这显然是丑陋的，也是不必要的，会使所有其他方法的代码复杂化。显然，这也不是一个优雅的解决方案!
