In the following classes ... it is possible when calling

MyDerived.Test()

to know that I am calling Test from MyDerived and NOT from MyClass?!

I have tried MethodInfo.GetCurrentMethod().ReflectedType ... but that
returns back MyClass.


public class MyClass
{


public static string Test()
{

}

}

public class MyDerived : MyClass
{


}




MyDerived.Test();

No. It actually gets compiled to a call to MyClass.Test anyway.

You might be able to determine that from
new StackTrace().

Yea ... I had thought of that, but here are the results

at MyClass.Test()
at MyClass.Main()
