Reflection: get invocation object in static method

Question

Is it possible to get an object that invoked static method in this method?

I have this code:

class A{
    static void foo(){
    }
}
A a = new A();
a.foo

No is impossible...the static method don't have the reference, you have to pass it reimplementing the method as:

class A{
    static void foo(A theObject){
    }
}
A a = new A();
A.foo(a);

and is better don't call the static method from the instance of the object
