How to get the current class' name in a static method? [duplicate]

Answer 1

I don't know if it's the best way to do it, but I usually set a private constructor (if my class is a static/util non-instantiable class) and than call GetType() on an instance.

private MyStaticClass
{
    // ...
}


public static Type MyStaticMethiod()
{
     return new MyStaticClass().GetType();
}

Answer 2

Use typeof:

string className = typeof(MyClass).Name;

Answer 3

new StackFrame().GetMethod().DeclaringType

or

MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType

or

new StackTrace(true).GetFrame(<frame index>).GetMethod() //e.g. <frame index> = 0
