OBSOLETE，留作参考（并显示我是如何得出最终解决方案的），请参阅下面 EDIT 之后的代码
我会说构建器模式是要走的路。我们只需要一个构建器来保留实例但修改需要更改的一个字段。
如果想获得（如您的代码所示）
Foo fooAndBar = foo1.merge(bar1);
需要额外的泛型类型定义（因此定义类 AMyAbstract ）才能在上述调用中仍然产生正确的最终类型（而不是仅仅将 AMyAbstract 视为 fooAndBar 的类型）。
注意：merge 方法在下面的代码中被重命名为 MergeItems 以明确合并的内容。
我为 Foo 和 Bar 指定了不同的构造函数，因此很明显它们不需要具有相同数量的参数。
实际上要真正不可变，列表不应该直接在 Items 属性中返回，因为它可以被调用者修改（使用 new List(items).AsReadOnly() 产生了一个 ReadOnlyCollection，所以我只使用了这个） .
代码：
abstract class AMyAbstract<T> where T : AMyAbstract<T>
{
public ReadOnlyCollection<string> Items { get; private set; }
protected AMyAbstract(IEnumerable<string> items)
{
this.Items = new List<string>(items).AsReadOnly();
}
public T MergeItems<T2>(AMyAbstract<T2> other) where T2 : AMyAbstract<T2>
{
List<string> mergedItems = new List<string>(Items);
mergedItems.AddRange(other.Items);
ButWithItemsBuilder butWithItemsBuilder = GetButWithItemsBuilder();
return butWithItemsBuilder.ButWithItems(mergedItems);
}
public abstract class ButWithItemsBuilder
{
public abstract T ButWithItems(List<string> items);
}
public abstract ButWithItemsBuilder GetButWithItemsBuilder();
}
class Foo : AMyAbstract<Foo>
{
public string Param1 { get; private set; }
public Foo(IEnumerable<string> items, string param1)
: base(items)
{
this.Param1 = param1;
}
public class FooButWithItemsBuilder : ButWithItemsBuilder
{
private readonly Foo _foo;
internal FooButWithItemsBuilder(Foo foo)
{
this._foo = foo;
}
public override Foo ButWithItems(List<string> items)
{
return new Foo(items, _foo.Param1);
}
}
public override ButWithItemsBuilder GetButWithItemsBuilder()
{
return new FooButWithItemsBuilder(this);
}
}
class Bar : AMyAbstract<Bar>
{
public string Param2 { get; private set; }
public int Param3 { get; private set; }
public Bar(IEnumerable<string> items, string param2, int param3)
: base(items)
{
this.Param2 = param2;
this.Param3 = param3;
}
public class BarButWithItemsBuilder : ButWithItemsBuilder
{
private readonly Bar _bar;
internal BarButWithItemsBuilder(Bar bar)
{
this._bar = bar;
}
public override Bar ButWithItems(List<string> items)
{
return new Bar(items, _bar.Param2, _bar.Param3);
}
}
public override ButWithItemsBuilder GetButWithItemsBuilder()
{
return new BarButWithItemsBuilder(this);
}
}
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
Foo foo1 = new Foo(new[] { "a", "b" }, "param1");
Bar bar1 = new Bar(new[] { "c", "d" }, "param2", 3);
Foo fooAndBar = foo1.MergeItems(bar1);
// items in fooAndBar now contain: {"a", "b", "c", "d"}
Console.WriteLine(String.Join(", ", fooAndBar.Items));
Console.ReadKey();
}
}

也许更简单的解决方案是避免使用构建器类，而是使用
abstract T ButWithItems(List<string> items);
直接在基类中，实现类只会像当前构建器那样实现它。
代码：
abstract class AMyAbstract<T> where T : AMyAbstract<T>
{
public ReadOnlyCollection<string> Items { get; private set; }
protected AMyAbstract(IEnumerable<string> items)
{
this.Items = new List<string>(items).AsReadOnly();
}
public T MergeItems<T2>(AMyAbstract<T2> other) where T2 : AMyAbstract<T2>
{
List<string> mergedItems = new List<string>(Items);
mergedItems.AddRange(other.Items);
return ButWithItems(mergedItems);
}
public abstract T ButWithItems(List<string> items);
}
class Foo : AMyAbstract<Foo>
{
public string Param1 { get; private set; }
public Foo(IEnumerable<string> items, string param1)
: base(items)
{
this.Param1 = param1;
}
public override Foo ButWithItems(List<string> items)
{
return new Foo(items, Param1);
}
}
class Bar : AMyAbstract<Bar>
{
public string Param2 { get; private set; }
public int Param3 { get; private set; }
public Bar(IEnumerable<string> items, string param2, int param3)
: base(items)
{
this.Param2 = param2;
this.Param3 = param3;
}
public override Bar ButWithItems(List<string> items)
{
return new Bar(items, Param2, Param3);
}
}
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
Foo foo1 = new Foo(new[] { "a", "b" }, "param1");
Bar bar1 = new Bar(new[] { "c", "d" }, "param2", 3);
Foo fooAndBar = foo1.MergeItems(bar1);
// items in fooAndBar now contain: {"a", "b", "c", "d"}
Console.WriteLine(String.Join(", ", fooAndBar.Items));
Console.ReadKey();
}
}
