Determine if Generic Class Implements Type

I'm working on a sharp-architecture project that mixes fluent mappings and auto mappings. A basic sharp-architecture project already has a method (AutoMappingConfiguration.ShouldMap) that determines if a type should be automatically mapped or not. Mine currently looks like this:

    public override bool ShouldMap(System.Type type)
    {
        if (type == typeof(ActiveUser))
            return false;

        return type.GetInterfaces().Any(x =>
             x.IsGenericType && x.GetGenericTypeDefinition() == typeof(IEntityWithTypedId<>));
    }

Essentially the type ActiveUser is mapped using a fluent mapping and everything else is mapped using auto mapping, except for the generic base classes of course. I'm at the point where I will be adding more fluently mapped classes and really don't want to keep adding if statements to this method to exclude them. I basically need the method

bool ShouldMap(System.Type type)

to return true if the generic class

ClassMap<type> 

exists.

Any suggestions开发者_如何学Go?

You can create the generic type using Type.MakeGenericType so assuming you have an assembly which contains all the mappings you can do:

public bool ShouldMap(Assembly mappingAssembly, Type type)
{
    Type classMapType = typeof(ClassMap<>).MakeGenericType(type);
    return mappingAssembly.GetTypes().Any(t => t.IsSubclassOf(classMapType));
}

have you considered mapping ALL of the classes, but using a Mapping*Override* for the classes you want to map explicitly (instead of regular fluent mapping)?
