C#：将基类转换为子类

我有一个类 NetworkClient 作为基类：

using System.IO;
using System.Net.Sockets;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace Network
{
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

public class NetworkClient
{
    public NetworkClient()
    {
        tcpClient = new TcpClient();
    }
    public NetworkClient(TcpClient client)
    {
        tcpClient = client;
    }

    public virtual bool IsConnected
    {
        get;
        private set;
    }
    private StreamWriter writer { get; set; }
    private StreamReader reader { get; set; }

    private TcpClient tcpClient
    {
        get;
        set;
    }

    public virtual NetworkServerInfo NetworkServerInfo
    {
        get;
        set;
    }

    public async virtual void Connect(NetworkServerInfo info)
    {
        if (tcpClient == null)
        {
            tcpClient=new TcpClient();
        }
        await tcpClient.ConnectAsync(info.Address,info.Port);
        reader = new StreamReader(tcpClient.GetStream());
        writer = new StreamWriter(tcpClient.GetStream());
    }

    public virtual void Disconnect()
    {
        tcpClient.Close();            
        reader.Dispose();

        writer.Dispose();
    }

    public async virtual void Send(string data)
    {
        await writer.WriteLineAsync(data);
    }

    public async virtual Task<string> Receive()
    {
        return await reader.ReadLineAsync();
    }

}
}

并且还有一个从 NetworkClient 派生的子类：

using System.Net;

namespace Network
{
using Data;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

public class SkyfilterClient : NetworkClient
{
    public virtual IPAddress Address
    {
        get;
        set;
    }

    public virtual int Port
    {
        get;
        set;
    }

    public virtual string SessionID
    {
        get;
        set;
    }

    public virtual User UserData
    {
        get;
        set;
    }

    protected virtual bool Authenticate(string username, string password)
    {
        throw new System.NotImplementedException();
    }

}
}

问题是，当我尝试将 NetworkClient 转换为 SkyfilterClient 时。引发异常，无法将“Network.NetworkClient”类型的对象强制转换为“Network.SkyfilterClient”类型。

我的代码有什么问题吗？我看到Stream可以转换为NetworkStream、MemoryStream。为什么NetworkClient无法转换为Skyfilter Client？

只要该对象实际上是一个SkyfilterClient，那么演员表应该可以工作。这是一个人为的例子来证明这一点：

using System;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        NetworkClient net = new SkyfilterClient();
        var sky = (SkyfilterClient)net;
    }
}

public class NetworkClient{}
public class SkyfilterClient : NetworkClient{}

然而，如果它实际上是一个NetworkClient，那么你就不能神奇地让它成为子类。这是一个例子：

using System;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        NetworkClient net = new NetworkClient();
        var sky = (SkyfilterClient)net;
    }
}

public class NetworkClient{}
public class SkyfilterClient : NetworkClient{}

但是，您可以创建一个转换器类。这里还有一个例子：

using System;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        NetworkClient net = new NetworkClient();
        var sky = SkyFilterClient.CopyToSkyfilterClient(net);
    }
}

public class NetworkClient
{  
  public int SomeVal {get;set;}
}

public class SkyfilterClient : NetworkClient
{
    public int NewSomeVal {get;set;}
    public static SkyfilterClient CopyToSkyfilterClient(NetworkClient networkClient)
    {
        return new SkyfilterClient{NewSomeVal = networkClient.SomeVal};
    }
}

但是，请记住，您无法以这种方式进行转换是有原因的。您可能缺少子类所需的关键信息。

最后，如果您只是想看看尝试的强制转换是否有效，那么您可以使用is:

if(client is SkyfilterClient)
    cast
