Eigenschaften von zwei Objekten vergleichen, um Unterschiede zu finden?

Ich habe zwei Objekte des gleichen Typs und möchte die öffentlichen Eigenschaften für jedes Objekt durchlaufen und den Benutzer darüber informieren, welche Eigenschaften nicht übereinstimmen.

Ist dies möglich, ohne zu wissen, welche Eigenschaften das Objekt enthält?

Ja, mit Reflexion - vorausgesetzt, jeder Eigenschaftstyp wird Equalsentsprechend implementiert . Eine Alternative wäre die ReflectiveEqualsrekursive Verwendung für alle außer einigen bekannten Typen, aber das wird schwierig.

public bool ReflectiveEquals(object first, object second)
{
    if (first == null && second == null)
    {
        return true;
    }
    if (first == null || second == null)
    {
        return false;
    }
    Type firstType = first.GetType();
    if (second.GetType() != firstType)
    {
        return false; // Or throw an exception
    }
    // This will only use public properties. Is that enough?
    foreach (PropertyInfo propertyInfo in firstType.GetProperties())
    {
        if (propertyInfo.CanRead)
        {
            object firstValue = propertyInfo.GetValue(first, null);
            object secondValue = propertyInfo.GetValue(second, null);
            if (!object.Equals(firstValue, secondValue))
            {
                return false;
            }
        }
    }
    return true;
}

Sicher können Sie mit Reflexion. Hier ist der Code zum Abrufen der Eigenschaften eines bestimmten Typs.

var info = typeof(SomeType).GetProperties();

Wenn Sie mehr Informationen darüber geben können, was Sie über die Eigenschaften vergleichen, können wir einen grundlegenden unterschiedlichen Algorithmus zusammenstellen. Dieser Code für die Instanz unterscheidet sich in den Namen

public bool AreDifferent(Type t1, Type t2) {
  var list1 = t1.GetProperties().OrderBy(x => x.Name).Select(x => x.Name);
  var list2 = t2.GetProperties().OrderBy(x => x.Name).Select(x => x.Name);
  return list1.SequenceEqual(list2);
}

Ich weiß, dass dies wahrscheinlich übertrieben ist, aber hier ist meine ObjectComparer-Klasse, die ich genau für diesen Zweck verwende:

Das eigentliche Problem: Wie erhält man die Differenz zweier Sätze?

Der schnellste Weg, den ich gefunden habe, besteht darin, die Mengen zuerst in Wörterbücher umzuwandeln und dann zu unterscheiden. Hier ist ein allgemeiner Ansatz:

static IEnumerable<T> DictionaryDiff<K, T>(Dictionary<K, T> d1, Dictionary<K, T> d2)
{
    return from x in d1 where !d2.ContainsKey(x.Key) select x.Value;
}

Dann können Sie so etwas tun:

static public IEnumerable<PropertyInfo> PropertyDiff(Type t1, Type t2)
{
    var d1 = t1.GetProperties().ToDictionary(x => x.Name);
    var d2 = t2.GetProperties().ToDictionary(x => x.Name);
    return DictionaryDiff(d1, d2);
}

Ja. Verwenden Sie Reflexion . Mit Reflection können Sie Dinge tun wie:

//given object of some type
object myObjectFromSomewhere;
Type myObjOriginalType = myObjectFromSomewhere.GetType();
PropertyInfo[] myProps = myObjOriginalType.GetProperties();

Und dann können Sie die resultierenden PropertyInfo-Klassen verwenden, um alle möglichen Dinge zu vergleichen.

Vergleichen zweier Objekte desselben Typs mit LINQ und Reflection. NB! Dies ist im Grunde eine Neufassung der Lösung von Jon Skeet, jedoch mit einer kompakteren und moderneren Syntax. Es sollte auch eine etwas effektivere IL erzeugen.

Es geht ungefähr so:

public bool ReflectiveEquals(LocalHdTicket serverTicket, LocalHdTicket localTicket)
  {
     if (serverTicket == null && localTicket == null) return true;
     if (serverTicket == null || localTicket == null) return false;

     var firstType = serverTicket.GetType();
     // Handle type mismatch anyway you please:
     if(localTicket.GetType() != firstType) throw new Exception("Trying to compare two different object types!");

     return !(from propertyInfo in firstType.GetProperties() 
              where propertyInfo.CanRead 
              let serverValue = propertyInfo.GetValue(serverTicket, null) 
              let localValue = propertyInfo.GetValue(localTicket, null) 
              where !Equals(serverValue, localValue) 
              select serverValue).Any();
  }

Type.GetProperties listet alle Eigenschaften eines bestimmten Typs auf. Verwenden Sie dann PropertyInfo.GetValue , um die Werte zu überprüfen.

Wie viele den rekursiven Ansatz erwähnt haben, können Sie mit dieser Funktion den gesuchten Namen und die Eigenschaft zunächst an Folgendes übergeben:

    public static void loopAttributes(PropertyInfo prop, string targetAttribute, object tempObject)
    {
        foreach (PropertyInfo nestedProp in prop.PropertyType.GetProperties())
        {
            if(nestedProp.Name == targetAttribute)
            {
                //found the matching attribute
            }
            loopAttributes(nestedProp, targetAttribute, prop.GetValue(tempObject);
        }
    }

//in the main function
foreach (PropertyInfo prop in rootObject.GetType().GetProperties())
{
    loopAttributes(prop, targetAttribute, rootObject);
}
