title: Get Current Class Name
body: <p>In Android, if I need to get name of current class, i can do something like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>private final _TAG = DummyActivity.this.getClass().getSimpleName();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>this would return "DummyActivity" </p>
  
  <p>I want to do same in C# WPF app code-behind.  How do I get the name of current class?  </p>
  
  <pre><code>this.GetType().Name; //this works only on instances of a class 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Looks like the only option is to hard-code it in C# like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>private const string _TAG = "DummyWindow";
  </code></pre>
