下面是我经常使用的演示格式。

public static string ToTitleCase(this string mText)
{
    if (mText == null) return mText;

    System.Globalization.CultureInfo cultureInfo = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture;
    System.Globalization.TextInfo textInfo = cultureInfo.TextInfo;

    // TextInfo.ToTitleCase only operates on the string if is all lower case, otherwise it returns the string unchanged.
    return textInfo.ToTitleCase(mText.ToLower());
}

这是我写的唯一一个我经常使用的扩展。 它使得用System.Net.Mail发送电子邮件更容易一些。

public static class MailExtension
{
    // GetEmailCreditial(out strServer) gets credentials from an XML file
    public static void Send(this MailMessage email)
    {
        string strServer = String.Empty;
        NetworkCredential credentials = GetEmailCreditial(out strServer);
        SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient(strServer) { Credentials = credentials };
        client.Send(email);
    }

    public static void Send(this IEnumerable<MailMessage> emails)
    {
        string strServer = String.Empty;
        NetworkCredential credentials = GetEmailCreditial(out strServer);
        SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient(strServer) { Credentials = credentials };
        foreach (MailMessage email in emails)
            client.Send(email);
    }
}

// Example of use: 
new MailMessage("info@myDomain.com","you@gmail.com","This is an important Subject", "Body goes here").Send();
//Assume email1,email2,email3 are MailMessage objects
new List<MailMessage>(){email1, email2, email}.Send();

我在我的Silverlight项目中使用这些:

public static void Show(this UIElement element)
{
    element.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;
}

public static void Hide(this UIElement element)
{
    element.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
}

public static class EnumerableExtensions
{
    [Pure]
    public static U MapReduce<T, U>(this IEnumerable<T> enumerable, Func<T, U> map, Func<U, U, U> reduce)
    {
        CodeContract.RequiresAlways(enumerable != null);
        CodeContract.RequiresAlways(enumerable.Skip(1).Any());
        CodeContract.RequiresAlways(map != null);
        CodeContract.RequiresAlways(reduce != null);
        return enumerable.AsParallel().Select(map).Aggregate(reduce);
    }
    [Pure]
    public static U MapReduce<T, U>(this IList<T> list, Func<T, U> map, Func<U, U, U> reduce)
    {
        CodeContract.RequiresAlways(list != null);
        CodeContract.RequiresAlways(list.Count >= 2);
        CodeContract.RequiresAlways(map != null);
        CodeContract.RequiresAlways(reduce != null);
        U result = map(list[0]);
        for (int i = 1; i < list.Count; i++)
        {
            result = reduce(result,map(list[i]));
        }
        return result;
    }

    //Parallel version; creates garbage
    [Pure]
    public static U MapReduce<T, U>(this IList<T> list, Func<T, U> map, Func<U, U, U> reduce)
    {
        CodeContract.RequiresAlways(list != null);
        CodeContract.RequiresAlways(list.Skip(1).Any());
        CodeContract.RequiresAlways(map != null);
        CodeContract.RequiresAlways(reduce != null);

        U[] mapped = new U[list.Count];
        Parallel.For(0, mapped.Length, i =>
            {
                mapped[i] = map(list[i]);
            });
        U result = mapped[0];
        for (int i = 1; i < list.Count; i++)
        {
            result = reduce(result, mapped[i]);
        }
        return result;
    }

}

我使用这个扩展方法通常与匿名类型，以获得一个字典ala ruby

public static Dictionary<string, object> ToDictionary(this object o)
{
    var dictionary = new Dictionary<string, object>();

    foreach (var propertyInfo in o.GetType().GetProperties())
    {
        if (propertyInfo.GetIndexParameters().Length == 0)
        {
            dictionary.Add(propertyInfo.Name, propertyInfo.GetValue(o, null));
        }
    }

    return dictionary;
}

你可以使用它

var dummy = new { color = "#000000", width = "100%", id = "myid" };
Dictionary<string, object> dict = dummy.ToDictionary();

用扩展的方法

public static void ForEach<T>(this IEnumerable<T> source, Action<T> action)
{
    foreach (T item in source)
    {
        action(item);
    }
}

你可以做到的

dummy.ToDictionary().ForEach((p) => Console.Write("{0}='{1}' ", p.Key, p.Value));

输出

Color ='#000000' width='100%' id='myid'

我在所有项目中用到的两个小技巧(有些人会觉得很傻)是:

public static bool IsNull(this object o){
  return o == null;
}

and

public static bool IsNullOrEmpty(this string s){
  return string.IsNullOrEmpty(s);
}

它使我的代码更流畅。

if (myClassInstance.IsNull()) //... do something

if (myString.IsNullOrEmpty()) //... do something

我认为这些是很好的扩展属性;如果我们能得到这些。
