C# Method Caller [duplicate]

Answer 1

You need to use the StackTrace class

Snippet from the MSDN

// skip the current frame, load source information if available 
StackTrace st = new StackTrace(new StackFrame(1, true)) 
Console.WriteLine(" Stack trace built with next level frame: {0}",
  st.ToString());

Answer 2

You can use the System.Diagnostics.StackTrace class:

  StackTrace stackTrace = new StackTrace();           // get call stack
  StackFrame[] stackFrames = stackTrace.GetFrames();  // get method calls (frames)

  // write call stack method names
  foreach (StackFrame stackFrame in stackFrames)
  {
    Console.WriteLine(stackFrame.GetMethod().Name);   // write method name
  }

These articles should be of help:

1. http://iridescence.no/post/GettingtheCurrentStackTrace.aspx
2. http://blogs.msdn.com/jmstall/archive/2005/03/20/399287.aspx

Basically the code looks like this:

StackFrame frame = new StackFrame(1);
MethodBase method = frame.GetMethod();
message = String.Format("{0}.{1} : {2}",
method.DeclaringType.FullName, method.Name, message);
Console.WriteLine(message);
