[英]Type Casting an Object using a “Type” Object in C#
This one has proven to be a little tricky for me so far. 到目前为止,这个对我来说有点棘手。 I am wondering if it is possible to type cast an object using a System.Type object.
我想知道是否可以使用System.Type对象键入强制转换对象。
I have illustrated below what I mean: 我在下面说明了我的意思:
public interface IDataAdapter
{
object Transform(object input);
Type GetOutputType();
}
public class SomeRandomAdapter : IDataAdapter
{
public object Transform(object input)
{
string output;
// Do some stuff to transform input to output...
return output;
}
public Type GetOutputType()
{
return typeof(string);
}
}
// Later when using the above methods I would like to be able to go...
var output = t.Transform(input) as t.GetOutputType();
The above is a generic interface which is why I am using "object" for the types. 以上是一个通用接口,这就是我为类型使用“object”的原因。
The typical way to do that is to use generics, like so: 这样做的典型方法是使用泛型,如下所示:
public T2 Transform<T, T2>(T input)
{
T2 output;
// Do some stuff to transform input to output...
return output;
}
int number = 0;
string numberString = t.Transform<int, string>(number);
As you mentioned in your comment below, generics are very similar to C++ Templates. 正如您在下面的评论中提到的,泛型与C ++模板非常相似。 You can find the MSDN documentation for Generics here , and the article " Differences Between C++ Templates and C# Generics (C# Programming Guide) " will probably be helpful.
您可以在此处找到Generics的MSDN文档 ,文章“ C ++模板与C#Generics之间的差异(C#编程指南) ”可能会有所帮助。
Finally, I might be misunderstanding what you want to do inside the method body: I'm not sure how you'll transform an arbitrary type T
into another arbitrary type T2
, unless you specify constraints on the generic types. 最后,我可能误解了你想在方法体内做什么:我不确定如何将任意类型
T
转换为另一个任意类型T2
,除非你在泛型类型上指定约束。 For example, you might need to specify that they both have to implement some interface. 例如,您可能需要指定它们都必须实现某个接口。 Constraints on Type Parameters (C# Programming Guide) describes how to do this in C#.
类型参数的约束(C#编程指南)描述了如何在C#中执行此操作。
Edit : Given your revised question, I think this answer from Marco M. is correct (that is, I think you should use the Converter
delegate where you're currently trying to use your IDataAdapter
interface.) 编辑 :鉴于您修改过的问题,我认为Marco M.的答案是正确的(也就是说,我认为您应该使用当前尝试使用
IDataAdapter
接口的Converter
委托。)
Why make it complicated, when you are sure that it returns a string? 当你确定它返回一个字符串时,为什么要使它变得复杂?
var output = t.Transform(input) as string;
If I have misunderstood what you are saying, here is one more way 如果我误解了你在说什么,这里还有一个方法
var output = Convert.ChangeType(t.Transform(input), t.GetOutputType());
You are better off using something like the Converter delegate 你最好使用像转换委托这样的东西
public delegate TOutput Converter<TInput, TOutput>(TInput input);
for an example, check out msdn 例如,看看msdn
public static void Main()
{
// Create an array of PointF objects.
PointF[] apf = {
new PointF(27.8F, 32.62F),
new PointF(99.3F, 147.273F),
new PointF(7.5F, 1412.2F) };
// Display each element in the PointF array.
Console.WriteLine();
foreach( PointF p in apf )
Console.WriteLine(p);
// Convert each PointF element to a Point object.
Point[] ap = Array.ConvertAll(apf,
new Converter<PointF, Point>(PointFToPoint));
// Display each element in the Point array.
Console.WriteLine();
foreach( Point p in ap )
{
Console.WriteLine(p);
}
}
public static Point PointFToPoint(PointF pf)
{
return new Point(((int) pf.X), ((int) pf.Y));
}
The above is a generic interface which is why I am using "object" for the types
以上是一个通用接口,这就是我为类型使用“object”的原因
Would it not make more sense to use an actual generic interface: 使用实际的通用接口是否更有意义:
public U Transform<T, U>(T input)
{
string output;
return output;
}
U output = t.Transform(input) as U;
This is what I have gone with (based off the IEnumerable structure): 这就是我所使用的(基于IEnumerable结构):
public interface IDataAdapter
{
object Transform(object input);
}
public interface IDataAdapter<OutT, InT> : IDataAdapter
{
OutT Transform(InT input);
}
public class SomeClass : IDataAdapter<string, string>
{
public string Transform(string input)
{
// Do something...
}
public object Transform(object input)
{
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
}
