我认为Matt的答案是最好的，但我不认为它是完全正确的。如果你想替换换行符，你必须使用:

myString = Regex.Replace(myString, @"\s+", " ", RegexOptions.Multiline);

Regex即使执行简单的任务也会相当慢。这将创建一个可用于任何字符串的扩展方法。

    public static class StringExtension
    {
        public static String ReduceWhitespace(this String value)
        {
            var newString = new StringBuilder();
            bool previousIsWhitespace = false;
            for (int i = 0; i < value.Length; i++)
            {
                if (Char.IsWhiteSpace(value[i]))
                {
                    if (previousIsWhitespace)
                    {
                        continue;
                    }

                    previousIsWhitespace = true;
                }
                else
                {
                    previousIsWhitespace = false;
                }

                newString.Append(value[i]);
            }

            return newString.ToString();
        }
    }

它将被这样使用:

string testValue = "This contains     too          much  whitespace."
testValue = testValue.ReduceWhitespace();
// testValue = "This contains too much whitespace."

string sentence = "This is a sentence with multiple    spaces";
RegexOptions options = RegexOptions.None;
Regex regex = new Regex("[ ]{2,}", options);     
sentence = regex.Replace(sentence, " ");

不使用正则表达式:

while (myString.IndexOf("  ", StringComparison.CurrentCulture) != -1)
{
    myString = myString.Replace("  ", " ");
}

可以在短弦上使用，但在有很多空格的长弦上表现不佳。

下面的代码将所有多个空格删除为一个空格

    public string RemoveMultipleSpacesToSingle(string str)
    {
        string text = str;
        do
        {
            //text = text.Replace("  ", " ");
            text = Regex.Replace(text, @"\s+", " ");
        } while (text.Contains("  "));
        return text;
    }

混合StringBuilder和Enumerable.Aggregate()作为字符串的扩展方法:

using System;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

public static class StringExtension
{
    public static string CondenseSpaces(this string s)
    {
        return s.Aggregate(new StringBuilder(), (acc, c) =>
        {
            if (c != ' ' || acc.Length == 0 || acc[acc.Length - 1] != ' ')
                acc.Append(c);
            return acc;
        }).ToString();
    }

    public static void Main()
    {
        const string input = "     (five leading spaces)     (five internal spaces)     (five trailing spaces)     ";
        
        Console.WriteLine(" Input: \"{0}\"", input);
        Console.WriteLine("Output: \"{0}\"", StringExtension.CondenseSpaces(input));
    }
}

执行这个程序产生以下输出:

 Input: "     (five leading spaces)     (five internal spaces)     (five trailing spaces)     "
Output: " (five leading spaces) (five internal spaces) (five trailing spaces) "
