Question

Assume this type:

public class Car { } 

And I create an instance of that:

Car myCar = new Car();

Target target = new Target();
target.Model = myCar;

And this is another Type:

public class Target {

   public object Model { get; set; }

   string GetName(){

     //Use Model and return myCar in this Example
   }

}

As I showed in code the GetName method must use an object type (Model) and returned the name of instance that is myCar in this example? what is your suggestion is there any way to do this?

Update
How about this:

public class Car {

  public string Title { get; set; }

}

And I pass to target: target.Model = Car.Title

And GetName() method returned Title ?

No, this is not possible. Why? Because myCar is only a name for your Car instance inside the scope which you set up the variable for. What gets saved to target.Model is a reference to the Car instance. So, after your sample code, both myCar and target.Model reference the same instance of Car, just with different names. The names themselves are rather unimportant to the execution of the program, it’s just a trick we use to make talking about instances easier.
