Question

So I have tried GetType() but for some reason, It does include the namespace...
Does C# not have a property for a class specifying its name?
For example:

public class Parent : System.Web.UI.UserControl {
    public someFunction(){
        Child child = new Child();
        Console.WriteLine(child.ThePropertyThatContainsTheName);
    }
}

public class Child : Parent {
}

I have tried to create the Child with a string property that has the name hard-coded, but only if we could find a better workaround to this... maybe reflection or expressions...

Thanks in advance =)

Edit: I am working on user controls by the way...

Answer 1

If you are using an ASP.NET Web Application project, you will normally be using the code-behind model.

ASP.NET will dynamically generate and compile a class from your aspx/ascx file, which uses the class you defined in your code-behind file as a base class.

this.GetType().Name and this.GetType().FullName will return the name of the auto-generated class generated by ASP.NET. This auto-generated class will subclass the UserControl/WebPage class you have defined in your code-behind file (Inherits keyword in the <%@Control ...> tag of your ascx file / <%@Page ...> tag of your aspx file).

If you want the name of your code-behind class, use:

this.GetType().BaseType.Name or this.GetType().BaseType.FullName

Answer 2

Use Type.Name like this:

using System;

class Test
{
    static void Main()
    {
        Console.WriteLine(typeof(Test).Name);
    }
}

or like this (if you are getting the type via Object.GetType):

using System;

class Foo { }

class Test
{
    static void Main()
    {
        Foo foo = new Foo();
        Console.WriteLine(foo.GetType().Name);
    }
}

Answer 3

Use GetType() and Name

Console.Writeline(child.GetType().Name);

or

Console.Writeline(child.GetType().FullName);

Answer 4

Or you can use reflection to get base type of your variable

control.GetType().BaseType.Name

If you need I can provide deep description why it is so.

If you want you can try this code

System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(((UserControl)control).AppRelativeVirtualPath)

This will give you the name you want, but this is not the type of the UserControl but it s file name.
