创建一个接口IFooable，然后让你的A和B类实现一个公共方法，它反过来调用你想要的相应方法:

interface IFooable
{
    public void Foo();
}

class A : IFooable
{
    //other methods ...

    public void Foo()
    {
        this.Hop();
    }
}

class B : IFooable
{
    //other methods ...

    public void Foo()
    {
        this.Skip();
    }
}

class ProcessingClass
{
    public void Foo(object o)
    {
        if (o == null)
            throw new NullRefferenceException("Null reference", "o");

        IFooable f = o as IFooable;
        if (f != null)
        {
            f.Foo();
        }
        else
        {
            throw new ArgumentException("Unexpected type: " + o.GetType());
        }
    }
}

注意，最好使用as，而不是先检查is，然后再强制转换，因为这样你会进行两次强制转换，所以成本更高。

你可以在c# 7或更高版本中使用模式匹配:

switch (foo.GetType())
{
    case var type when type == typeof(Player):
        break;
    case var type when type == typeof(Address):
        break;
    case var type when type == typeof(Department):
        break;
    case var type when type == typeof(ContactType):
        break;
    default:
        break;
}

有了JaredPar的答案，我写了一个他的TypeSwitch类的变种，使用类型推断来获得更好的语法:

class A { string Name { get; } }
class B : A { string LongName { get; } }
class C : A { string FullName { get; } }
class X { public string ToString(IFormatProvider provider); }
class Y { public string GetIdentifier(); }

public string GetName(object value)
{
    string name = null;
    TypeSwitch.On(value)
        .Case((C x) => name = x.FullName)
        .Case((B x) => name = x.LongName)
        .Case((A x) => name = x.Name)
        .Case((X x) => name = x.ToString(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture))
        .Case((Y x) => name = x.GetIdentifier())
        .Default((x) => name = x.ToString());
    return name;
}

注意，Case()方法的顺序很重要。

获取我的TypeSwitch类的完整的注释代码。这是一个有效的缩写版本:

public static class TypeSwitch
{
    public static Switch<TSource> On<TSource>(TSource value)
    {
        return new Switch<TSource>(value);
    }

    public sealed class Switch<TSource>
    {
        private readonly TSource value;
        private bool handled = false;

        internal Switch(TSource value)
        {
            this.value = value;
        }

        public Switch<TSource> Case<TTarget>(Action<TTarget> action)
            where TTarget : TSource
        {
            if (!this.handled && this.value is TTarget)
            {
                action((TTarget) this.value);
                this.handled = true;
            }
            return this;
        }

        public void Default(Action<TSource> action)
        {
            if (!this.handled)
                action(this.value);
        }
    }
}

c#中绝对没有类型切换(更新:在c# 7 / VS 2017中支持类型切换-参见Zachary Yates的回答)。为了不使用大量的if/else if/else语句，您需要使用不同的结构。前段时间我写了一篇博文，详细介绍了如何构建TypeSwitch结构。

https://learn.microsoft.com/archive/blogs/jaredpar/switching-on-types

短版本:TypeSwitch的设计目的是防止冗余强制转换，并提供类似于普通switch/case语句的语法。例如，下面是TypeSwitch在一个标准Windows窗体事件上的操作

TypeSwitch.Do(
    sender,
    TypeSwitch.Case<Button>(() => textBox1.Text = "Hit a Button"),
    TypeSwitch.Case<CheckBox>(x => textBox1.Text = "Checkbox is " + x.Checked),
    TypeSwitch.Default(() => textBox1.Text = "Not sure what is hovered over"));

TypeSwitch的代码实际上非常小，可以很容易地放入你的项目中。

static class TypeSwitch {
    public class CaseInfo {
        public bool IsDefault { get; set; }
        public Type Target { get; set; }
        public Action<object> Action { get; set; }
    }

    public static void Do(object source, params CaseInfo[] cases) {
        var type = source.GetType();
        foreach (var entry in cases) {
            if (entry.IsDefault || entry.Target.IsAssignableFrom(type)) {
                entry.Action(source);
                break;
            }
        }
    }

    public static CaseInfo Case<T>(Action action) {
        return new CaseInfo() {
            Action = x => action(),
            Target = typeof(T)
        };
    }

    public static CaseInfo Case<T>(Action<T> action) {
        return new CaseInfo() {
            Action = (x) => action((T)x),
            Target = typeof(T)
        };
    }

    public static CaseInfo Default(Action action) {
        return new CaseInfo() {
            Action = x => action(),
            IsDefault = true
        };
    }
}

如果你知道你期待的类，但你仍然没有一个对象，你甚至可以这样做:

private string GetAcceptButtonText<T>() where T : BaseClass, new()
{
    switch (new T())
    {
        case BaseClassReview _: return "Review";
        case BaseClassValidate _: return "Validate";
        case BaseClassAcknowledge _: return "Acknowledge";
        default: return "Accept";
    }
}

是的——只需要使用c# 7中命名有点奇怪的“模式匹配”来匹配类或结构:

IObject concrete1 = new ObjectImplementation1();
IObject concrete2 = new ObjectImplementation2();

switch (concrete1)
{
    case ObjectImplementation1 c1: return "type 1";         
    case ObjectImplementation2 c2: return "type 2";         
}
