c# print the class name from within a static function

Is it possible to print the class name from within a static function?

    {
        // Print the          


        

Answer 1

Since C# 6.0 there exists an even simpler and faster way to get a type name as a string without typing a string literal in your code, using the nameof keyword:

public class Foo
{
    static void PrintName()
    {
        string className = nameof(Foo);
        ...
    }
}
