其他回答

我经常用这个来表示可为空的数字。我帮助用0,NaN,无穷大…

public static bool IsNullOrDefault<T>(this T? o) 
    where T : struct
{
        return o == null || o.Value.Equals(default(T));
}

这是我经常使用的控件调用扩展;

public static class InvokeExtensions
{
    public static void InvokeHandler(this Control control, MethodInvoker del) // Sync. control-invoke extension.
    {
        if (control.InvokeRequired)
        {
            control.Invoke(del);
            return; 
        }
        del(); // run the actual code.
    }

    public static void AsyncInvokeHandler(this Control control, MethodInvoker del) // Async. control-invoke extension.
    {
        if (control.InvokeRequired)
        {
            control.BeginInvoke(del);
            return; 
        }
        del(); // run the actual code.
    }
}

样本;

this.TreeView.AsyncInvokeHandler(() =>
        {
            this.Text = 'xyz'
        });

允许跨线程gui更新。

我一直在寻找一种方式来回馈社区我所开发的一些东西。

这里有一些FileInfo扩展,我觉得非常有用。

/// <summary>
/// Open with default 'open' program
/// </summary>
/// <param name="value"></param>
public static Process Open(this FileInfo value)
{
    if (!value.Exists)
        throw new FileNotFoundException("File doesn't exist");
    Process p = new Process();
    p.StartInfo.FileName = value.FullName;
    p.StartInfo.Verb = "Open";
    p.Start();
    return p;
}

/// <summary>
/// Print the file
/// </summary>
/// <param name="value"></param>
public static void Print(this FileInfo value)
{
    if (!value.Exists)
        throw new FileNotFoundException("File doesn't exist");
    Process p = new Process();
    p.StartInfo.FileName = value.FullName;
    p.StartInfo.Verb = "Print";
    p.Start();
}

/// <summary>
/// Send this file to the Recycle Bin
/// </summary>
/// <exception cref="File doesn't exist" />
/// <param name="value"></param>
public static void Recycle(this FileInfo value)
{        
    value.Recycle(false);
}

/// <summary>
/// Send this file to the Recycle Bin
/// On show, if person refuses to send file to the recycle bin, 
/// exception is thrown or otherwise delete fails
/// </summary>
/// <exception cref="File doesn't exist" />
/// <exception cref="On show, if user refuses, throws exception 'The operation was canceled.'" />
/// <param name="value">File being recycled</param>
/// <param name="showDialog">true to show pop-up</param>
public static void Recycle(this FileInfo value, bool showDialog)
{
    if (!value.Exists)
            throw new FileNotFoundException("File doesn't exist");
    if( showDialog )
        FileSystem.DeleteFile
            (value.FullName, UIOption.AllDialogs, 
            RecycleOption.SendToRecycleBin);
    else
        FileSystem.DeleteFile
            (value.FullName, UIOption.OnlyErrorDialogs, 
            RecycleOption.SendToRecycleBin);
}

在用户喜欢的编辑器中打开任意文件:

new FileInfo("C:\image.jpg").Open();

打印任何操作系统知道如何打印的文件:

new FileInfo("C:\image.jpg").Print();

将任何文件发送到回收站:

你必须包括微软。VisualBasic参考 使用Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO;

例子:

new FileInfo("C:\image.jpg").Recycle();

Or

// let user have a chance to cancel send to recycle bin.
new FileInfo("C:\image.jpg").Recycle(true);

如果您使用财政年度,则有两个有用的扩展

/// <summary>
/// Returns the fiscal year for the passed in date
/// </summary>
/// <param name="value">the date</param>
/// <returns>the fiscal year</returns>
public static int FiscalYear(this DateTime value)
{
  int ret = value.Year;
  if (value.Month >= 7) ret++;
  return ret;
}

/// <summary>
/// Returns the fiscal year for the passed in date
/// </summary>
/// <param name="value">the date</param>
/// <returns>the fiscal year</returns>
public static string FiscalYearString(this DateTime value)
{
  int fy = FiscalYear(value);
  return "{0}/{1}".Format(fy - 1, fy);
}

这是另一个控制扩展,我一直在使用,虽然我不知道它是否张贴在这里之前。

public static class ControlExtensions
{
    public static void DoubleBuffer(this Control control) 
    {
        // http://stackoverflow.com/questions/76993/how-to-double-buffer-net-controls-on-a-form/77233#77233
        // Taxes: Remote Desktop Connection and painting: http://blogs.msdn.com/oldnewthing/archive/2006/01/03/508694.aspx

        if (System.Windows.Forms.SystemInformation.TerminalServerSession) return;
        System.Reflection.PropertyInfo dbProp = typeof(System.Windows.Forms.Control).GetProperty("DoubleBuffered", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance);
        dbProp.SetValue(control, true, null);
    }
}

用法:

this.someControl.DoubleBuffer();
