StackFrame.GetMethod Method

Definition

Gets the method in which the frame is executing.

C#
public System.Reflection.MethodBase GetMethod();
C#
public virtual System.Reflection.MethodBase? GetMethod();
C#
public virtual System.Reflection.MethodBase GetMethod();

Returns

The method in which the frame is executing.

Examples

The following example demonstrates the use of the GetMethod method. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the StackFrame class.

C#
StackFrame fr = new StackFrame(1,true);
StackTrace st = new StackTrace(fr);
EventLog.WriteEntry(fr.GetMethod().Name,
                    st.ToString(),
                    EventLogEntryType.Warning);

Remarks

The method that is currently executing may be inherited from a base class, although it is called in a derived class. In this case, the ReflectedType property of the MethodBase object that is returned by GetMethod identifies the base class, not the derived class.
