Question by uncopy2002 · Mar 14, 2014 at 07:37 PM · mathf

Extension Methods on Mathf not working

I'm trying to make some extension methods to Mathf that rounds, floors or ceils a value by a specific base (which base = 1 reduces to normal round/floor/ceil). Except that the code's not working, and the methods are at my extension methods class rather than Mathf struct:

 using UnityEngine;
 using System.Collections;
 using System;
 
 public static class ExtraMethods {
     
     public static double Round2(this Mathf math, double num, double round)
     {
         return System.Math.Round (num / round) * round;
     }
     
     public static double Floor2(this Mathf math, double num, double round)
     {
         return num - num % round;
     }
 
     public static double Ceil2(this Mathf math, double num, double round)
     {
         return num - (num % round) + round;
     }
     
 }

You can't extend an already static class that way. You can only extend instances of objects (hence the this parameter). Perhaps you should just make a MathDouble class or something.

Or you could extend double to have rounding operators.

is this still the case? I know it's just syntactic sugar, but have a use case that would really benefit from an extension method like this.
