Helper methods that deal with deep cloning objects (copying an object without a memory reference).
Get Started
$ dotnet add package CommonNetFuncs.DeepCloneReadme
CommonNetFuncs.DeepClone
This project contains helper methods for deep cloning objects in .NET applications (i.e. creating a new instance of an object with the same values as an existing instance but without the same references in memory).

ExpressionTrees
Use expression trees to deep clone objects. This is by far the fastest of the three deep clone methods in this package with a minor penalty for the first clone of each unique type to construct the expression tree.
ExpressionTrees Usage Examples
<details> <summary><h3>Usage Examples</h3></summary>DeepClone
Deep clone an object using expression trees.
public class Person
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public int Age { get; set; }
}
Person original = new() { Name = "Chris", Age = "34" };
Person clone = original.DeepClone();
clone.Name = "Nick"; // Clone's Name property == "Nick" while original's Name property remains "Chris"
