C# - Reasonable Extension Method For Project?
Mar 9, 2010
I recently found out about C# extension methods and wrote this one:
/// <summary>
/// Short-hand for setting the data source and binding it.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="me">The control to set and bind the data source of.</param>
/// <param name="dataSource">The data source.</param>
public static void BindTo(this DataBoundControl me, IEnumerable dataSource)
{
me.DataSource = dataSource;
me.DataBind();
}
What do you guys think? Is this a reasonable extension method to use in a professional ASP.NET project?

I have the following Extension Method
Imports System.Runtime.CompilerServices
Namespace Extensions
Public Module IntegerExtensions
<Extension()>
Public Function ToCommaDeliminatedNumber(ByVal int As Integer) As String
Dim _input As String = int.ToString
Select Case int
Case Is > 99999 : Return _input.Remove(_input.Length - 3) & "k"
Case Is > 9999 : Return Math.Round(Double.Parse(int / 1000), 1).ToString & "k"
Case Is > 999 : Return String.Format("{0:N0}", int)
Case Else : Return _input
End Select
End Function
End Module
End Namespace
And in one of my classes I'm using user.Reputation.ToCommaDeliminatedNumber I am importing the Extensions Namespace into the Class, but the error I'm getting is...'ToCommaDeliminatedNumber' is not a member of 'Integer?'. I do have other Extension Methods for Strings and Dates that work exactly as expected... I'm just at a loss on this one.

I know there is a ListBoxFor extension method among the ASP.NET MVC Html helper extension methods, but I always thought that a checkbox list is more user-friendly than a list box.
There was a very convenient CheckBoxList control in good old WebForms, but obviously that is out of the picture now. The question is, why is there no way in ASP.NET MVC to create a check box list? How can I write my own extension method that creates a check box list and behaves in a similar way ListBoxFor behaves?

I am trying to change the extention of a MS Project file to xml. The only way I can think of doing this (as changing extention does not work) is write a script to open MS Project and the specific file and then 'save as' and change the value to XML Document.

I am stuck with the database row level security model that my predecessor has implemented on this project. I am trying to make an extension method for my linq to sql classes to make it easier to filter rows of data in my linq queries. The problem I am facing is that I need to somehow tell it how to access the primary key value of the object in the where clause. I get errors about DynamicInvoke(object[]) cant be converted to SQL. Here is a sample of what I am working with:
[Code]....
How do I do this?

VWD 2008 Express. Visual Basic.
I am using the Directory.GetFiles method as follows:
[Code]....
As expected, it returns files with the ".pdf" extension. I would like to be able to specify more than one extension (like "*.doc*" and "*.txt*", etc.). How can I use GetFiles to return files with more than one desired extension, without returning all files?

I'm binding an object to a gridview. The object (LeClient) consists of several variables, two of which are related to its phone number. One variable contains a string of digits (LePhone) and the other contains an int that represents the country code (LeCountryCode). I have an extension method for strings that works to format the string LePhone and that I'd like to pass it LeCountryCode as the parameter.
So far, on RowDataBound I have an event handler with the following line:
e.Row.Cells[5].Text = (string)(e.Row.Cells[5].Text).ToPhoneFormat(1);
I'd like to replace the 1 with the corresponding country code that's stored in the object LeClient associated with the row. How does this work? I tried
.ToPhoneFormat(e.Row.DataItem("LeCountryCode"));

I would like to know what the pros and cons are of creating an extension method v a partial view. From my understanding, htmlHelper extension methods are better as they enable one to unit test the view.
e.g. Assert.AreEqual(Html.Price(), "<td><tr><td>Price</td><td>4.50</td></tr>");
where the Price() method contains the presentation logic.
Since both the extension method and partial view are reusable, what then is the point / benefit of a partial view?

Is something like the below possible?
public static T Sum<T>(this DataTable dt, string columnName)
where T : IEnumerable<decimal>, IComparable<decimal>[code]....
It feels like i'm almost there, but not quite :/
Just trying to sum up either decimal or int values in a column in datatable. Currently getting a compile error, however think this is due to the incorrect generic constraint.

Im trying to test my extension method that converts a list of strings in a string comma separated:
public static class Extensions
{
public static string ToCommaString<T>(this IList<T> input)
{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
foreach (T value in input)
{
sb.Append(value);
sb.Append(",");
}
return sb.ToString();
}
public void TestExtension()
{
IList test=new List<string>();
//test.ToCommaString doesnt appear
}
}
The issue is that in the method TestExtension i cant use ToCommaString method. Do you know what's happening?
Could i make available for all my web application this extension method registering in web.config or something similar?

I am considering an upgrade to Visual Studio 2010 Pro from my Visual Studio 2008 Standard Edition while the price is still $299. I have successfully used Visual Studio 2008 Standard Edition along with SQL Server 2008 R2 Express Edition to produce websites with database backends. I am assuming that I will still be able to do this with Visual Studio 2010 Pro without any heart-stopping transitional problems. Anyone have any experiences/advice about this? And just for the record, I cannot afford Visual Studio 2010 Premium which I believe would make this a moot point.

i have defined a dropdown list in the controller
[Code]....
then i can show this dropdownlist in my "about" view <%=Html.DropDownList("a") %>.
BUT, now i want to define this dropdown list at my back end. what i want to do is to create a new "Helper".cs file in my project, and create a function within it. so every time if i want to show this dropdown list, i can just simply call this function instead of Add new SelectListItems one by one. is there anyone tell me how to do it?? and is it a good way to create a dropdownlist at the back end?

At times when we access session["key"].To String() it gives exception as when session is expired and session variable is accessed. So I am in for extension method on object so that I could do it as session["key"].getString() so that every time I don't have to do Convert.ToString (session["key"])Other way solutions are also appreciable.
