C# - DynamicObject with Dynamic

本文转载:http://joe-bq-wang.iteye.com/blog/1872756

里面有动态Linq to xml的写法。

There is a expando object which allow you add/remove properties at runtime, DynamicObject provides ou with more capability and it is better used in places where a wrapper excels a raw XML file or script object syntax. 


First, we will intoduce the  DynamicObject, as stated in the References Section on "DynamicObject Class",which defines some methods such as TryGetMember, TrySetMember, TryInvokeMembers which acts as a proxy to the real value contained in the DynamicObject derived classes. Also, DynamicObject has special support from the DLR (Dynamic Language Runtime) which means it has some special translation when you use DynamicObject with "dynamic" keyword. 

 

First, we will see a example object with DynamicObject which has the ability to let you query/set values in case-insensitive fashion, which the real data is backed by a Dictionary.

  1. using System.Collections.Generic;  
  2. using System.Dynamic;  
  3.   
  4. namespace DynamicObjectDemo  
  5. {  
  6.     class DynamicDictionary : DynamicObject  
  7.     {  
  8.         private Dictionary<string, object> dictionary = new Dictionary<string, object>();  
  9.   
  10.   
  11.         public int Count  
  12.         {  
  13.             get { return dictionary.Count; }  
  14.         }  
  15.   
  16.   
  17.         public override bool TryGetMember(GetMemberBinder binder, out object result)  
  18.         {  
  19.   
  20.             string name = binder.Name.ToLower();  
  21.             return dictionary.TryGetValue(name, out result);  
  22.         }  
  23.   
  24.         public override bool TrySetMember(SetMemberBinder binder, object value)  
  25.         {  
  26.             dictionary[binder.Name.ToLower()] = value;  
  27.   
  28.             return true;  
  29.         }  
  30.     }  
  31. }  

 

 

and here is a test program to show you how to use the DynamicDictionary class.

  28.   
  29.             Console.WriteLine("NUmber of dynamic properties" + person.Count);  
  30.   
  31.   
  32.             try  
  33.             {  
  34.                 // the following will throw Exception at runtime,   
  35.                 // when the TryGetMember method return a false, and this causes a

  37.                 Console.WriteLine(person.address);  
  38.             }  
  39.             catch (RuntimeBinderException ex)  
  40.             {  
  41.                 Debug.WriteLine("caught exception calling person.address: {0}", ex.ToString());  
  42.             }  
  43.             catch (Exception ex)  
  44.             {  
  45.                 Debug.WriteLine("Some unknown exception : {0}", ex.ToString());  
  46.             }  
  47.         }  
  48.     }  
  49. }  

 

 

With DynamicObject, you can do even more, suppose that we have an XElement and we know we can create an XElement with some syntax as below. 

 

C#代码  收藏代码
  1. XElement contactXML =  
  2.     new XElement("Contact",  
  3.     new XElement("Name", "Patrick Hines"),  
  4.     new XElement("Phone", "206-555-0144"),  
  5.     new XElement("Address",  
  6.         new XElement("Street1", "123 Main St"),  
  7.         new XElement("City", "Mercer Island"),  
  8.         new XElement("State", "WA"),  
  9.         new XElement("Postal", "68042")  
  10.     )  
  11. );  

 

 

however, we can make it even simpler. what we have in mind is something like this: 

 

Haskell代码  收藏代码
  1. dynamic contact = new DynamicXMLNode("Contacts");  
  2. contact.Name = "Patrick Hines";  
  3. contact.Phone = "206-555-0144";  
  4. contact.Address = new DynamicXMLNode();  
  5. contact.Address.Street = "123 Main St";  
  6. contact.Address.City = "Mercer Island";  
  7. contact.Address.State = "WA";  
  8. contact.Address.Postal = "68402";  

 

 

we might need to write Dyanmic Extended class  with the following override.s 

 

TryGetMember : the Contact.Address.Street part in the Contact.Address.Street statement (the part to get some member back) 

TrySetMember: contact.Name = "Patrick Hines";

TryConvert: contact.Name = "Patrick Hines"; (Expected value type is String, but returned type is a DynamicXMLNode)

TryInvokeMember: we have hide the XElement , this enables us to the hidden methods supported by the Xlement

 

here is the full code of the implementation of DynamicXMLNode.

to give an impression on the capability that the DynamixXMLNode has empowered us, let ‘see the test code below.
