重载运算符

重载运算符在实际的工作中很用到，但如果某些自定义类型通过简短几行代码重载一些常用的运算符（如：+-*/），就能让编程工作带来方便；重载运算符就是告诉编译器+-*/等运算符对于自定义类型进行什么样的操作，在代码中需要注意几点。

一、尽可能的不要改变运算符本身的含义

二、所有的运算符重载都必须声明为public和static

三、不同于扩展方法，所重载的方法必须是在被重载的类型内部，且用关键 operator

C#中的两个字符串相加，实际上是连接两个字符串，假如有两个EmployeeDetail类型相加得到一个EmployeeCollection集合，如：

EmployeeDetail a,b;

....

EmployeeCollection collection = a+b;

当编译器遇到上面的代码时就会自动调用EmployeeDetail类上标有operator +的静态方法，并将两个操作数a和b作为参数传递给对于的方法，该方法需要方法一个值赋给collection，假设EmployeeDetail类有三个属性分别是FirstName,MiddleName,LastName，还重写了ToString方法返回一个连接这三个名称的字符串，代码如：

  [Serializable]
    public class EmployeeDetail
    {
        public string FirstName { get; set; }
        public string MiddleName { get; set; }
        public string LastName { set;get; }
        public override string ToString()
        {
            return string.Format("{0}{1}{2}{3}{4}", FirstName, string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(MiddleName) ? null : "."
                , MiddleName
                , string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(LastName) ? null : ".",
                LastName).Trim();
        }
    }

下面的代码为“+”运算符提供支持的运算符重载：

 public static EmployeeCollection operator +(EmployeeDetail a, EmployeeDetail b)
        {
            return new EmployeeCollection() { a, b };
        }

OK，给EmployeeDetail类加上这样的一个方法之后，我们就可以像下面那个写代码了：

EmployeeCollection collection = new EmployeeDetail(){FirstName="Jackson",LastName="Bruce"}  + new EmployeeDetail(){FirstName="Michael",LastName="Jackson"} ;

但是这样还不够完美，假设a，b，c都是EmployeeDetail类型，下面的代码会抛出一个编译错误：

EmployeeCollection collection = a + b + c;

为什么编译不通过呢？大家都知道除了赋值运算符外表达式是从左到右执行的，a+b返回的是EmployeeCollection类型，EmployeeCollection类型并没有重载“+”运算符，编译器不知道要执行什么操作，所以我们还有下面的两个方法：

        public static EmployeeCollection operator +(EmployeeCollection collection, EmployeeDetail a)
        {
            collection.Add(a);
            return collection;
        }
        public static EmployeeCollection operator +(EmployeeDetail a, EmployeeCollection collection)
        {
            return collection + a;
        }

这看起来似乎已经很完美了，但我们还可以做得更好一些，比如要将字符串“Jackson.Bruce”直接隐式转换为EmployeeDetail类型，也就是说可以将“Jackson.Bruce"这种格式的字符串直接赋给EmployeeDetail类型的对象，如：EmployeeDetail employee= “Jackson.Bruce"，那么就需要重载隐式类型转换运算符了，代码如下：

/// <summary>
        /// 隐式类型转换
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="name"></param>
        /// <returns></returns>
        public static implicit operator EmployeeDetail(string name)
        {

　　　　　　　/// 其实在这里可以写一个正则表达式检查name的字符串格式是否合法，如果不合法就抛出异常
　　　　　　　///
            string[] arr;
            return string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(name) ? null :
                new EmployeeDetail()
                {
                    FirstName = (arr = name.Trim().Split('.'))[0]
                    ,
                    LastName = arr.Length > 1 ? arr[arr.Length > 2 ? 2 : 1] : null,
                    MiddleName = arr.Length > 2 ? arr[1] : null
                };
        }
        public static EmployeeCollection operator +(EmployeeDetail a, string b)
        {
            return new EmployeeCollection() { a, b };
        }

看到这里您是不是迫不及待地想试试看，OK写个控制台程序来测试一下：

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            EmployeeDetail employee = "Jackson.Bruce";
            Console.WriteLine("FirstName={0},MiddleNam={1},LastName={2}", employee.FirstName, employee.MiddleName, employee.LastName);
            Console.WriteLine("toString={0}", employee);
            Console.WriteLine();

            EmployeeCollection collection = "Michael.Jackson" + employee;

            collection += "Bruce.Lee";
            foreach (var e in collection)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(e);
            }
            Console.WriteLine();

            collection -= employee;

            foreach (var e in collection)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(e);
            }


            Console.WriteLine("===end===");
            Console.Read();
        }

运行结果
