copied!<p>Yes definitely.</p> <p>If you want an object to manipulate I actually use a function like this:</p> <pre><code>public static T CreateWrapper<T>(Exception innerException, params object[] parameterValues) where T : Exception, new() { if (parameterValues == null) { parameterValues = new object[0]; } Exception exception = null; StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder(); MethodBase method = new StackFrame(2).GetMethod(); ParameterInfo[] parameters = method.GetParameters(); builder.AppendFormat(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, ExceptionFormat, new object[] { method.DeclaringType.Name, method.Name }); if ((parameters.Length > 0) || (parameterValues.Length > 0)) { builder.Append(GetParameterList(parameters, parameterValues)); } exception = (Exception)Activator.CreateInstance(typeof(T), new object[] { builder.ToString(), innerException }); return (T)exception; } </code></pre> <p>This line:</p> <pre><code>MethodBase method = new StackFrame(2).GetMethod(); </code></pre> <p>Walks up the stack frame to find the calling method then we use reflection to obtain parameter information values passed to it for a generic error reporting function. To get the current method simply use current stack frame (1) instead.</p> <p>As others have said for the current methods name you can also use:</p> <pre><code>MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod() </code></pre> <p>I prefer walking the stack because if look internally at that method it simply creates a StackCrawlMark anyway. Addressing the Stack directly seems clearer to me </p> <p>Post 4.5 you can now use the [CallerMemberNameAttribute] as part of the method parameters to get a string of the method name - this may help in some scenarios (but really in say the example above)</p> <pre><code>public void Foo ([CallerMemberName] string methodName = null) </code></pre> <p>This seemed to be mainly a solution for INotifyPropertyChanged support where previously you had strings littered all through your event code.</p>
