Hello,
is there a way of retrieving the type of the class containing a static
method from the method itself when it gets called?
I have this situation: an abstact class that defines a static method, a
class that derives from the abstract class and I need
to retrieve the type of the concrete class when calling the static method.
public abstact class MyAbstact
{
public static MyMethod()
{
// is there a way of getting the type of the class (i.e. MyConcrete) from
inside here???
}
}
public class MyConcrete : MyAbstact
{
public MyOtherMethod()
{
MyConcrete.MyMe thod() // calling the static method defined in the
abstract class
}
}
Regards,
Bob Rock

I don't think so.
Because you are really calling MyAbstract.MyMe thod ...
You can get MyAbstract with:
MethodInfo.GetC urrentMethod(). DeclaringType.F ullName
But that is rather pointless.

Hi Bob,
No. For that requirement you should either make MyMethod an instance
method, accept a Type parameter or make it generic in the 2.0 framework if
that would add any value.

Yes, that I already tried and unfortunately the abstract class and not the
concrete one is returned. Even navigating the call stack does not help.
Again the abstract type and not the concrete one is returned.

Yes, that is something I was trying to avoid ... it would dirty my otherwise
perfect design :-(

The use of MyConcrete doesn't survive the compiler's name resolution pass.
Check the MSIL.
}
}
Hi Bob,
I'm not sure what it is that you're doing, but if your method relies on the
Type of a derived class then your design probably isn't perfect to begin
with ;)

Hi all,
I am trying to get custom attributes from a property. I can do this if I

if I pass in set_Name which is what the set piece of the Name property gets
compiled to, which I am getting from the stack trace, then the attributes are
not returned.
For example, Class Person has a property called "Name" which has a custom
attribute decorating it. Inside the set...

I would like to have a static method on a base class that executes some

In a non-static method, I can obtain the Type of the class containing
that method with "this.GetType()".
In a static method, I cannot, of course. There is no "this".
I have a method in another class that needs to be passed a Type object
associated with a class. I'm calling that method from a static method,
and want to pass the Type object associated with the class that contains
that static method.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
