我最近还需要一个通用的TryParse。这是我想到的;

public static T? TryParse<T>(string value, TryParseHandler<T> handler) where T : struct
{
    if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(value))
        return null;
    T result;
    if (handler(value, out result))
        return result;
    Trace.TraceWarning("Invalid value '{0}'", value);
    return null;
}

public delegate bool TryParseHandler<T>(string value, out T result);

那么这就是一个简单的调用问题:

var value = TryParse<int>("123", int.TryParse);
var value2 = TryParse<decimal>("123.123", decimal.TryParse);

从XDocument获取后代的版本。

public static T Get<T>(XDocument xml, string descendant, T @default)
{
    try
    {
        var converter = TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(typeof (T));
        if (converter != null)
        {
            return (T) converter.ConvertFromString(xml.Descendants(descendant).Single().Value);
        }
        return @default;
    }
    catch
    {
        return @default;
    }
}

像这样的怎么样?

/// <summary> 
/// Checks the specified value to see if it can be 
/// converted into the specified type. 
/// <remarks> 
/// The method supports all the primitive types of the CLR 
/// such as int, boolean, double, guid etc. as well as other 
/// simple types like Color and Unit and custom enum types. 
/// </remarks> 
/// </summary> 
/// <param name="value">The value to check.</param> 
/// <param name="type">The type that the value will be checked against.</param> 
/// <returns>True if the value can convert to the given type, otherwise false. </returns> 
public static bool CanConvert(string value, Type type) 
{ 
    if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(value) || type == null) return false;
    System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter conv = System.ComponentModel.TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(type);
    if (conv.CanConvertFrom(typeof(string)))
    { 
        try 
        {
            conv.ConvertFrom(value); 
            return true;
        } 
        catch 
        {
        } 
     } 
     return false;
  }

这可以很容易地转换为泛型方法。

 public static bool Is<T>(this string value)
 {
    if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(value)) return false;
    var conv = System.ComponentModel.TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(typeof(T));

    if (conv.CanConvertFrom(typeof(string)))
    { 
        try 
        {
            conv.ConvertFrom(value); 
            return true;
        } 
        catch 
        {
        } 
     } 
     return false;
}

使用try/catch进行流控制是一种糟糕的策略。抛出异常会导致运行时在处理异常时性能滞后。相反，在转换之前验证数据。

var attemptedValue = "asdfasdsd";
var type = typeof(int);
var converter = TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(type);
if (converter != null &&  converter.IsValid(attemptedValue))
    return converter.ConvertFromString(attemptedValue);
else
    return Activator.CreateInstance(type);

当遵循这个参考:如何调用静态方法在c# 4.0与动态类型?

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Dynamic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Reflection;

namespace Utils
{
   public class StaticMembersDynamicWrapper : DynamicObject
   {
      private Type _type;

      public StaticMembersDynamicWrapper(Type type) { _type = type; }

      // Handle static methods
      public override bool TryInvokeMember(InvokeMemberBinder binder, object[] args, out object result)
      {
         var methods = _type
            .GetMethods(BindingFlags.FlattenHierarchy | BindingFlags.Static | BindingFlags.Public)
            .Where(methodInfo => methodInfo.Name == binder.Name);

         var method = methods.FirstOrDefault();
         if (method != null)
         {
            result = method.Invoke(null, args);
            return true;
         }

         result = null;
         return false;
      }
   }

   public static class StaticMembersDynamicWrapperExtensions
   {
      static Dictionary<Type, DynamicObject> cache =
         new Dictionary<Type, DynamicObject>
         {
            {typeof(double), new StaticMembersDynamicWrapper(typeof(double))},
            {typeof(float), new StaticMembersDynamicWrapper(typeof(float))},
            {typeof(uint), new StaticMembersDynamicWrapper(typeof(uint))},
            {typeof(int), new StaticMembersDynamicWrapper(typeof(int))},
            {typeof(sbyte), new StaticMembersDynamicWrapper(typeof(sbyte))}
         };

      /// <summary>
      /// Allows access to static fields, properties, and methods, resolved at run-time.
      /// </summary>
      public static dynamic StaticMembers(this Type type)
      {
         DynamicObject retVal;
         if (!cache.TryGetValue(type, out retVal))
            return new StaticMembersDynamicWrapper(type);

         return retVal;
      }
   }
}

使用方法如下:

  public static T? ParseNumeric<T>(this string str, bool throws = true)
     where T : struct
  {
     var statics = typeof(T).StaticMembers();

     if (throws) return statics.Parse(str);

     T retval;
     if (!statics.TryParse(str, out retval)) return null;

     return retval;
  }

你可以使用INumber<T>接口:

public static bool Is<T>(string input)
    where T : INumber<T>
{
    return T.TryParse(input, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, out _);
}

这个接口是在。net 7中作为泛型数学的一部分引入的，它也允许你对泛型基本类型进行计算。

这也可以在。net 6中通过添加System.Runtime.Experimental NuGet包，然后将<EnablePreviewFeatures>true</EnablePreviewFeatures>添加到项目的任何PropertyGroup来实验使用。
