Question

I have a method. I want to check a condition and
if result of my condition is true throw new exception.
I need to name of method for message exception. For example :

public void MyMethod(Notifier not)
{ 
    if(not.HasValue())
        throw new Exception("MyMethod_name : " + not.Value);
} 

How get name of method in the method?

Answer 1

This approach avoids the stack issues:

public void MyMethod(Notifier not)
{ 
    if(not.HasValue())
    {
        string methodName = System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().Name;
        throw new Exception(methodName + ": " + not.Value);
    }
} 

[But note that there may occasionally be unexpected results: for example, small methods or properties are often inlined in release builds, in which case the result will be the caller’s method name instead.]
