CSharpEssentials.Clone

Type-safe generic cloning for .NET. Provides a strongly-typed ICloneable<T> alternative to the legacy System.ICloneable, plus extension methods for cloning collections.

Features

  • Generic ICloneable<T> — Type-safe cloning interface.
  • Collection Extensions — Clone IEnumerable<T> and IQueryable<T> in one call.
  • Deep Copy Support — Compose clones for nested objects.

Installation

dotnet add package CSharpEssentials.Clone

Usage

Implementing ICloneable<T>

using CSharpEssentials.Clone;

public class User : ICloneable<User>
{
    public string Name { get; set; } = string.Empty;
    public Address Address { get; set; } = new();

    public User Clone() => new()
    {
        Name = Name,
        Address = Address.Clone()
    };
}

public class Address : ICloneable<Address>
{
    public string City { get; set; } = string.Empty;

    public Address Clone() => new() { City = City };
}

Cloning a Single Object

User original = new() { Name = "Alice", Address = new Address { City = "NYC" } };
User clone = original.Clone();

clone.Name = "Bob";
clone.Address.City = "LA";

// original is unaffected

Cloning Collections

var users = new List<User>
{
    new() { Name = "Alice" },
    new() { Name = "Bob" }
};

// Clone all items
var cloned = users.Clone().ToList();

// Clone from IQueryable
IQueryable<User> query = users.AsQueryable();
var clonedQuery = query.Clone();
